Fuck, this really is the year that just keeps on taking...
Writer and absolute legend of south american comics Robin Wood just passed away last night. He's survived by a metric ton of stories and characters like Dago, Dax, Danske, Pepe Sanchez, Aquí la Legion (my father's favorite) and his most well known creation: Nippur de Lagash, a sumerian general driven to exile who roamed the classic world having incredible adventures for over thirty years.
I want this year to fucking end already, /co/.

Just yesterday. Saw it on an FB post by his wife. Apparently, he had some kind of brain problems, but they don't go into detail.
Concha de la lora...

Ah, more info is coming through. Turns out Wood is not dead, but he has been diagnosed with an irreversible disease that has caused him to give up his writing career:

That's what I get for being defeatist I guess. Fuerza!

I don't even have to read this to be impressed: most Gold and Silver Age comics had terrible composition. This page is immediately inviting despite a basic grid layout.

Aw..

Danske actually means "Danish".
>>87513581
Oh that's better, I hope he enjoys his otium and be satisfied with a long life of creativity and joy.
Thanks Mister R. Wood!

I very much doubt it. Though there is a huge ongoing project to reprint most of his works by ECC editores.
