Se n'è andato Joe Simon

[Joker]

Aveva 98 anni e come saprete creò Capitan America insieme a Kirby! R.I.P.

This is indeed a sad time for comic book lovers everywhere, with Captain America co-creator and prolific artist Joe Simon passing away at the age of 98. Just last week, Joker creator Jerry Robinson also passed. Simon and Robinson were among some of our last links to the Golden Age of comics, and were key in creating a mythology and iconography that has profoundly impacted our pop-culture -- from comics to movies, to modern art, design, apparel, and beyond. (read more about Simon's influence on Captain America: The First Avenger at MTV Splashpage)

Both were also very active in public speaking and the convention circuit despite their advanced years, and loved recounting stories about the formative years of the comic book industry; Simon had just made an appearance at a panel in this year's New York Comic Con to promote his recent book, Joe Simon: My Life in Comics.

Mi dispiace anche se bisogna dire che ha vissuto i suoi anni, ne approfitto che per fare ill comiato al bravo Eduardo Barreto, ottimo penciler molto classico che personalmente ricordo il suo bellissimo one shot su Lex Luthor

Ho appreso di entrambi dal profilo FB di Brubaker.

Sono davvero molto dispiaciuto.
