I thought I should forward on some news that was posted over on the webcomic list.

I shouldn't really be all that much of a surprise, but still bad news.

it is such a horrible loss to the comic/art industry. he will truly be missed.

Awww, I liked American Splendor.  :(

Yeah I read about this earlier but was too exhausted to post. Thanks Wendy for picking up my slack.

This is a real shame. Seventy just doesn't seem that old anymore.

I don't have the words.

We did a tribute to Pekar over at Louder Than Bombs.

We watched American Splendor last night too. So ends a legend.

This really sucks.  I really liked his stuff, especially when he teamed with Crumb.
