He was an utter legend and seems to be such a genuine and kind person on top of that. I'm glad he at least passed away peacefully.

RIP George Perez.

Aw man. Nobody will ever be as important as Neal and George were to the art of superhero comics.

A terrible week or so for comic book fans; with two of the giants passing away. RIP to them both.

Came in here to say this. Adams pretty much was the peak of 70's era DC for me and Perez was the king in the 80's. Comics as a whole wouldn't be what they are without some of the big leaps they made back then.

RIP to a Titan of the industry.

Really rough weeks for comics fans. I am really bummed out by both passing.

RIP to one of my favorite actors, Fred Ward, at 79. Star of "Remo Williams...", co-star of "Tremors" and sequels, of "The Right Stuff", "Escape From Alcatraz", and many more. Check out "Remo Williams..." BTW if you haven't, it's a very underrated midish 80s action movie with comic book style elements and some of the best stunt work outside of Bond movies you'll ever see, based on "The Destroyer" series of novels.

Also, "Cast A Deadly Spell", a fun noir Lovecraftian style magic moviel

I was a big fan of the Destroyer novels when the movie came out. While it was a flop (Joel Grey in heavy Oreintal makeup as Chuin was ridiculous), I thought Mr. Ward did great as Remo, but, he was awesome in Tremors. Methinks I’ll watch it tonight.

I perfectly remember “Remo Williams”… I think its biggest flaw was its lack of originality but it was a very funny movie with a very sympathetic Remo. Rip, Mr Ward.

Rosemarie Trapp, one of the last surviving members of the Von Trapp family made famous from The Sound Of Music movie, has passed away.

I just heard that Vangelis (Evángelos Odysséas Papathanassíou) died… I liked so much his “Chariots de Feu”:



But he created so many wonderful musics for cinema…

[Scott Taylor]

RIP Vangelis. Love that music so much. And the video from Chariots de feu - always cracks me up when Eric Liddell runs that race wearing slacks and suspenders.

The original Blade Runner for example. It was as stunning as the visuals in that movie. RIP to him.
