Not a comic reader, but I did see the movie with Paul Giamanti based on his life.

Sorry to hear this. I am glad that the movie gave him more widespread recognition in his final years. His stuff wasn't always my cup of tea, but I admired the fact that a guy like him (a Joe Blow) could make it as a writer.

JimBob-- Are your Titans books from the Wolfman-Perez run? I used to have their entire run and lost it during a childhood move. I would be interested in talking about a price for that. Send me a PM.
