Looking at the title of this thread, it sounded like he passed away. I guess that didn't happen.

My first Legion comic was Superboy #203, which was Mike Grell's first issue and also the death of Invisible Kid -- really made me sad as a kid to have the starring character of the story die at the end. Anyway, I loved Mike's Legion and Green Lantern/Green Arrow.
I own the full series of Warlord, but I think that DC should do an omnibus of it so we can see it with better printing and paper. Since Warlord has never been reprinted, I'd guess that DC doesn't want to because Mike probably had some kind of ownership stake or profit-sharing arrangement that DC finds to be too generous to make it worth their while. Shame.
Loved his work on LSH. One of my favorite covers is a Warlord cover where Morgan is emerging from a mirror.
I didn't mean to memorialize him, only to remember an artist who has largely been forgotten. And I think this was his best cover. I was most familir with his bringing back GL/GA from the back pages of The Flash title and into the relauch with issue 90 etc.
Unless CBR has already hired an assassin to aide Mr. Grell's passing into the afterlife, could moderators seriously retitle this thread?
First, change the title.
Second, one of the first writers who actually gave Oliver Queen some complexity beyond the forced theme O'Neil injected in him.

I remember the first wave because I had the Warlord and Arak. I don't remember seeing the second wave.
