Bob Oksner




This is old news now, seeing as how it's been just over a year now, but I just found out, that comics great Bob Oksner passed away February 18th 2007 at the age of 90.
Here's a link to an article by Mark Evanier on Oksner if you want to learn more on his career, since the Wikipedia entry on him is seriously lacking.

I could go on and on about how amazing an artist he was, or gush about all the great titles he worked on, like Supergirl, the Many Loves of Dobie Gillis, Shazam, Adventures of Jerry Lewis, House of Mystery, Lois Lane are but a few of my favorites, but I figured I'd let his art speak for itself. These were all taken from the wonderful comicartfans website.

Every time see his art is puts a smile on my face. Here's to you Mr. Oksner. See ya in the funnybooks.
