Dave Simons (1954 - 2009)

Dave Simons, the  comic book artist / inker  known for his work on Conan, Ghost Rider, Red Sonja and Spider-Man, has passed away from cancer.  Originally he had Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma, but then it spread into his throat and stomach. However, it wasn’t the cancer that killed him, it was pneumonia.

Huge loss for the community of an all round nice guy and talented artist. He and I used to tell cancer stories & swap cancer jokes. This sadness is felt globally, im sure.
