Herb Trimpe Passes

Not able to link to other articles on my phone, but Herb Trimpe has passed away.

His Hulk work will be indelibly etched in my mind.

RIP, good sir. Thank you for all you've done for comic book storytelling.

Wow...this makes me sad. Herb Trimpe was such an important part of the best of my comic book memories. His Hulk, Juggernaut, Wendigo, Wolverine (The Original Wolverine of course), Abomination, Rhino, Zzaaaxxx, Bi-Beast, Harpy, Doc Samson, Xemnu the Titan, Hammer and Anvil, Cobalt Man and many more fill my happy memory banks. I'll always be grateful to Herb for all the hours and issues that filled the summer days of my youth. RIP Herb...

Borrow money from a pessimist, they don't expect it back.

I'm friends with his daughter, and he lived near my parents. He used to come to our school and show his artwork to us and answer questions. He was always a very nice guy.

Thoughts and prayers.
