Sad news to report today. Yesterday we learned that artist/writer/legend Darwyn Cooke was in a battle for his life and a few hours ago we learned of his sad passing at 53!
Darwyn's work is epic! To me he was always the perfect amalgam of Joe Kubert and Jack Kirby as far as emotion and layout. He hit the legend status with DC - THE NEW FRONTIER where he drew the epic last stand of one of my favorite teams, the Losers. He also drew my second favorite Jonah Hex comic, JONAH HEX # 50 (volume two). The last time I saw him, I was able to tell him that. He told me it was a pleasure and all credit goes to Palmiotti and Gray for the script."
A class act...
