BERNIE WRIGHTSON PASSED AWAY


Yesterday, legendary comic and horror artist BERNIE WRIGHTSON died after a long battle with brain cancer. He was 68.

Wrightson is well remembered as the co-creator of SWAMP THING and his breathtaking pencil work of horrors, from Frankenstein to Alien to even Batman

I had the honor of meeting him many years ago at a comic convention where he graciously signed my "Bernie Wrightson Pop-Up Book". He was tickled to sign it - a first, he said. 

Farewell to a brilliant artist who influenced generations - a true Master of the Macabre.
