I just had him sign my Sakai Project book back in January. I didn't know he had cancer. :(

Sad news. :cry:

I also met him when getting my Sakai Project signed. I'm sorry to see that he lost his battle with cancer.

Man, I hate cancer.

I enjoyed his Richard Stark's Parker books. I just finished reading The Twilight Children. I enjoy his art a lot. Sad news day. :cry:

I planned on getting The Twilight Children tpb when it came out and noticed InStockTrades has it under their Deals of the Week for 50% off cover.

I thought Parker: The Hunter was pretty good.
