RIP buddy. I read quite a few of the rags he painted.

Damn. I wasn't even familiar with him until a few days ago but by pure coincidence heard about him on a podcast. Apparently he was a longtime inker for Jack Kirby among many others.

Quote:

In an uncanny stroke of luck and perfect timing, just when Kirby gained the time to improve his artwork, Joe Sinnott became the Fantastic Four's regular inker. Sinnott was a master craftsman, fiercely proud of the effort and meticulous detail he put into his work. ... That slick, stylized layer of India ink that Sinnott painted over Kirby's pencils finished Jack's work in a way that no other inker ever would. Comic fans had never witnessed art this strange and powerful in its scope and strength.

Obviously Jack mufuggin king Kirby deserves all of his credit but if Sinnot helped to birth this then god damn RIP.

Jacques Coursil (1938 - 2020)

Linguistics probably paid more than music,
but I wish he had been more of a musical presence.
He did good tho - major playing on some solid albums.

Byron "Reckful" Bernstein, Twitch Streamer, Dies at 31

Actually, the saddest thing about this was a comment that was left less than an hour ago:

Quote:

"Byron had a long history of very public problems with Bipolar depression. He was having a manic episode early this morning. Posting about how lonely he was and proposing to his ex on twitter. He was immediately attacked by trolls telling him to kill himself or calling him a freak for doing so. 1/2 hour later he was dead. National Suicide Prevention Lifeline 1-800-273-8255"
