Robinson was one of the great artists of the golden age, and I'm sorry to see him go.

And another of the greats: Joe Simon passed away.

It's deeply sad to hear Joe Simon, one of the fathers of Timely/Marvel has passed on. Another of the originals gone.
:(

Yet another legend is lost forever.
Aside from Captain America and Bucky, I keep thinking to all of the great characters that the Simon/Kirby team either created or helped guide through different periods of the Golden Age -- Newsboy Legion and the Guardian, Sandman and Sandy, Stuntman, Manhunter, Fighting American and Speedboy, the 1950's Shield, the Fly... :(
I'm so sorry that they are now both gone. But at least they've left behind a wealth of outstanding material for future generations to enjoy. Comics would never have been the same without them.
