RIP

Bad news guys. . .

. . . Stephane Peru died today. He was 26. You may recognize him as the colorist for such awesomeness as DC's Teen Titans: Year One or The Flash: The Fastest Man Alive, or Marvel's Annihilation: Conquest or The Incredible Herc.

Me, I knew the guy from Ultimate X-Men.

Such a young age. . . that's really unfair, my condolences to the guy and his family.
There there Jean. It'll. . . it'll be all right. The best thing you can do right now is to go on in his honor.

Gosh, I apologize for saying this, but Steve Gerber died yesterday, Sunday.

You may recognize Gerber as the perpetrator of such awesomeness as Howard the Duck, Omega the Unknown, Nevada, or The Defenders. He was a guy who believed that comics could be serious and meaningful, and yet he insistently found the funny in everything. He was working on DC's Countdown to Mystery, revamping Dr. Fate with a sidestory on Eclipso.

Your works will live on, guys, and that makes you alive in my eyes.
