He was super-talented and it's very sad to lose him. Such evocative artwork, really a rare ability.

This serves as a reminder that my contemporaries are starting to get up in years. Walt Simonson turned 70 last year. Neal Adams will be 76 in June. And I will be 67 in July.

All us young punks collecting our Social Security!!

His Frankenstein work is truly a masterpiece.

An incredible talent has left us.
