KISS Comic Writer Dead At 60From: Orion579 Posted: February 12, 2008 I found this on comicbookresources.com. Although it doesn't mention his work on the Howard the Duck comics featuring KISS and the first Marvel Super Special he wrote featuring KISS vs. Dr. Doom in this story, Mark Evanier mentions it breifly in his blog which is linked at the end of the story STEVE GERBER, R.I.P. by CBR News Team, Editor Posted: February 11, 2008 Legendary comics writer Steve Gerber passed away on Sunday, February 10, 2008, due to complications from pulmonary fibrosis. He was 60-years-old. Best known for his creation Howard the Duck, Gerber was responsible for many of the memorable characters of the 1970s including Omega the Unknown, Man-Thing and Shanna the She-Devil. In the last two decades, Gerber authored celebrated Marvel Comics stories including runs on "Sub-Mariner," "Daredevil" and "Defenders." DC Comics published Gerber’s creator-owned works "Nevada" and "Hard Time," both of which were met with considerable critical acclaim. In television, Gerber was a writer and story editor on such lauded series as "The Transformers" and "G.I. Joe." He created "Thundarr the Barbarian," and in 1998 shared a Daytime Emmy Award for his work on "The New Batman/Superman Adventures." Prior to his death, Gerber was writing "Countdown to Mystery: Doctor Fate" for DC Comics. For a more in-depth tribute to Steve Gerber and his rich body of work, CBR News encourages fans and readers to visit Mark Evanier’s blog. |
