..is receiving palliative care for aggressive cancer. Some sources say that he has died, including people who worked with him and fellow comic book legends. No official statement has been issued yet.

And I feel utterly broken.

Darwyn's work has been so important to me. Thought of losing an artist of his caliber is crushing. DC: New Frontier is one of my favorite comic books ever, and I have read it over and over again multiple times. I'm not much of fan of Before Watchmen (then again I'm not the hugest fan of original book anyway) but Minutemen was in my opinion genuinely good story.

Catwoman, Batman, Richard Stark's Parker- man's resume was amazing.


Bad news...

It's been announced on Newsarama that Darwin Cooke had passed away.
I feel so sorry, his work was so important.
RIP Darwin Cooke.

Yes, I read that too. Here's a link. I'm just thinking all the stories and amazing work that was left undone. I had a dream of him making a Ne Frontier-esque period piece graphic novel about Fantastic Four.

Rest In Peace, Darwyn.
