R.I.P. Al Williamson



Another giant gone. He really was one of the greats. Especially his work for the old black and white horror mags published by Warren.

I've got an issue of Classic Star Wars: Han Solo at Star's End, which features Al's art. It's cool.

Al Williamson had major talent. It's sad to see that we won't see more of him and that talent.

That’s f*$&%d!

All the heroes of my youth are dropping one by one. One of the few Marvel jobs I did was inked by Al. Simply one of the greats and always bought a lot to the table no matter what the job.

He was a master storyteller as well as a great technical artist. I grew up looking at his art. His Flash Gordon strip was amazing.

One of the greats who will be greatly missed.
