Arnold Drake, 1924-2007
Comics writer Arnold Drake, best-known for his work for DC Comics in the 1960s (including Jerry Lewis, Doom Patrol, Stanley and His Monster, and other quirky, odd-ball titles), has died at the age of 83 at Cabrini Hospital in New York.
He'll be missed; as Comics Should Be Good said, he was the Grant Morrison of his day.
Obituaries: SFWA, The Beat 1 and 2, Mark Evanier.
