Yeah, one of my alltime favorites. I thought I'd posted here earlier today, but that was during one of today's internet outages. Anyway, it took a great talent to make Herb Trimpe look good.

Was a huge fan of Severin- didn't he sometimes use the name "O O Severin," which I guess I just realized thirty something years later is a play on "007." In avant-ILX times I thought about doing "TS: Mort Drucker vs. John Severin." RIP everybody.

I have strong memory of seeing an episode of Mary H in which she is distraught over her marital problems and has no one to turn to so she calls her dad. He tells her he has been watching a Claudette Colbert movie on TV that he has never seen the end of and if he doesn't watch it now he will never get a chance to see how it turns out. Mary hangs up and endures her troubles in silence, alone. RIP.

This is a weird one. Neil Hope, who played "Wheels" on the original "Degrassi Junior High" series in the 80s, apparently died in 2007 at the age of 35, but his death was just revealed publicly.
