Awful news. Feels like all the titans of the industry are dropping like flies.

This one hits hard, like Len Wein's death did. Big fan of both of their work.

We're old, bros

Sad to hear, he'll be missed I'm sure.

Well, yeah, that's the way it works. All the people from when we were kids are aging out. George Perez is coming soon, everyone knows and is unhappy about that. Frank Miller (if anyone still admits to liking him) has for several years made John Carpenter look like Justin Beiber. So he can't have long. The next decade is going to be rough for anyone who grew up with the comics of the 1970s-1980s.

Ms. Mystic was my first comic crush. Loved all his PC & Continuity stuff, on top of the strides he made in the mainstream.
Godspeed you, Mr. Adams.
