RIP Gene Colan

Sadly, Gene Colan died on Thursday at the age of 84. Colan was one of the greats of the Silver Age, where he did the artwork for the cult classics The Tomb of Dracula and Howard the Duck, the latter of which was turned into a so-crappy-it-might-actually-be-good-but-not-really movie in the 80s, as well as other titles ranging from Batman to Iron Man and beyond. Colan also co-created The Falcon, one of the first African-American superhero in mainstream comics and created Blade, the vampire hunter.

Rest in Peace.
