This was the man who brought me into US comics, when the B&W repritns of Tomb of Dracula appeared in the UK. He was that rare artist, whose work actually looked better in washed out or no colours - see if you can fidn his Nathaniel Dusk stories as an example. He was also the definitive Howard the Duck artist.

RIP, Mr Colan - your rest is well earned.

I'm starting to wonder why we post these death notices on the board. I mean, yeah. I know that it's nice to respect the people who've passed, but it's really a huge downer and a lot of these people aren't really related to the board focus at all.

General Discussion. If it depresses you then don't click on the topic.

Sad to see him go. Fond memories of reading Daredevil and honestly appreciating the art as some of the best when I was a wee lad.

Yes he will be missed

Not Gene Colan. For those that don't know this I'm a huge DareDevil fan, or was until the Kevin Smith reboot. I have some of those original comics as well. He was really awesome.

Sad news for us. But Gene Colan had gone through a great deal of pain and suffering the last few years and I'm thankful at least that his suffering is finally over.
