RIP Berni Wrightson

I was very saddened to find out today that Berni Wrightson, arguably the best pen and ink master of his generation, passed away last Saturday from brain cancer. His work, which spanned nearly fifty years, was some of the most influential and engrossing art in the horror genre ever produced. He was, in my opinion, to horror illustration what Frank Frazetta was to fantasy painting. I had the honour of meeting him at the 1992 NYCC. He was an incredibly approachable and genuinely nice man. He will be sorely missed.

sad news indeed, its always saddest for me when classic artists pass away, more than actors or musicians or anything like that

Me too. And yet you're the only person to have responded to this news. If Will Ferrell got hit by a truck the responses would be thirty pages long. So sad that we have lost so much respect for the real artists of the world.
