Remembering Bob Oksner

It’s a busy week, getting ready for the NY Comicon, but I didn’t want to miss mentioning the passing of Bob Oksner. He drew the absolutely cutest girls in comics, and I’ve been a fan since I was a kid. Roy Thomas has an outstanding issue of Alter Ego (#67, below), dedicated to Oksner, due out in early April. Sadly, Bob passed away before seeing it in print (but he was very cooperative in helping Roy and Jim Amash put it together).

I hate seeing these great pros leave us, but thankfully their work lives on. Here’s to you, Bob Oksner.
