Earlier today, news of Darwyn Cooke's passing was announced, coming only a day after his treatment for "aggressive" cancer was disclosed.
Although like many, I loved his work on The New Frontier graphic novel for DC (and his Before Watchmen: Minutemen mini-series was the only highlight of that effort), my personal tastes lean more towards his adaptations of Richard Stark's Parker novels.
And I love his art. I'm not sure I can say anymore than....he'll be missed.
