Sometimes there are things I want to say that have nothing to do with gaming, and sometimes I have nothing to really say on gaming for months at a time. Witness the two month gap in postings when I first began. So why define the blog so rigidly? From now on it'll be a general blog... probably with mostly video game content for the time being, but lots on comics, toys, anime, and other subjects wondering in and out.
Yesterday afternoon I learned that comic book artist Mike Wieringo passed away on Sunday August 12 of a massive heart attack. He was only 44. He maintained a healthy diet and exercised every day. He didn't register in any risk group. But he's gone from the world, when he still had so much to give. By all accounts, he was the best this industry of prima donnas has to offer. He was kind, humble and generous, constantly denying his own importance and artistic brilliance. He lived and breathed comics and his death is a loss for anyone who loves comics, whether they knew him, knew of him, or had never heard of him. He is already greatly missed.
