I was never a huge fan of those comics, but to go at such an age and to go in the middle of a fight with cancer is just terrible. I wish his family the best. It's pretty sad news, and I'm sorry to hear him go so early.
Yeah. I've been struggling with this since Saturday when I heard about it. He was my favorite artist and I had the pleasure of meeting him a few times. I went to Wizard World Philly in 2006 and 2007 and stood in line for his autographs multiple times each year. This was a guy who never let his illness dominate or define who he was. He was always so upbeat and so happy to have all these fans standing in line for his autograph. He truly lived every second of his life. I didn't even know he was sick again. My condolences go out to his family and friends.
