Nothing really to add, other than we've lost another of the greats.

Yoc:
Oh this hurts.   :'(
Sadly I'm getting used to the feeling.
RIP Gene.

 What a drag. I never thought Colan's work was appropriate for some of the characters he drew but when it worked the effects were magical. I doubt I'll ever see a better version of Dracula than his, and I thought he was perfect for the short-lived "Night Force" as well. He was unique and that's a quality that is becoming regretably rare.

Astaldo711:
So sad to hear how the end of his life played out. Whatever he may have suffered in life he is at peace now. Rest well.

I was really saddened to hear this this morning. I've gotten more and more into Colan's work over the last few months, and I was hoping to be able to tell him in person at the NY comic con in the fall. I saw him at the show four years ago, but didn't have the chance to talk to him. I even dreamed last night about talking to him about Tomb of Dracula.
