for the comic fans

[Texxx]

since I know there are several comic book fans on here I thought I would post that Dave Cockrum died. he was responsible for revamping the X-Men in the 70s and making them the hit they are today.
he died wearing his superman pajamas and is going to be buried in a green lantern tshirt. :)
the article I read said he cried when watching the movies...not because he got stiffed on any royalties but because he was so happy to see his creations come to life.

There are still the Famous Other Ones remaining .....

John Romita
Sal Buscema
John Buscema
Paul (don't remember his name)

I thinik I forget someone else, too...

Well, the rest of The Big Team that created the X-Men is still there.

Yo know what? Now, after the X-Men Trilogy at the Movies, I'm dreaming about the meeting of the Silver Surfer with the Fantastic Four...

Ahhh, nostalgia of my youth... *BIG SIGH*

My brother told me this today. I remember collecting comics in the 80s, and seeing his work in X-Men.
