Ah that's awful. Fantastic artist. RIP.

Really sad to hear of Norm Breyfogle's death. The first artist I remember on Batman, and pretty much my favourite Batman artist.

As someone said, he could draw movement and action like few others.

I'd gone on a splurge on payday, yesterday, and bought all the Knightfall's Volumes, and was looking forward to seeing the one or two issues he drew. Be a strange read now.

RIP.

Terrible news about Breyfogle. He was a fantastic artist and had an amazing talent for dynamism and movement in his pages. Definitely my favourite Batman artist.

Yeah, he was great. Always wished we could have seen him in 2000AD. He'd have done a good Dredd, I think.

Regards,

Robin

Sadly, he'd been just about to start a Dredd story for 2000AD's FCBD offering when he had the stroke that left him unable to draw...

Norm Breyfogle?  Shit.

As folks say, his Batman work really made it.  He had such a macabre sensibility at times, matched by Kelley Jones (who's Deadman work is gorgeous).  At the same time though it was outright bonkers.

His dropping out of the FCBD prog a few years back was a massive missed opportunity but under the circumstances ...

That is heart-breaking.

Grant and Breyfogle's Batman is still the definitive one for me. The man was a wonderful and very underappreciated artist. He'll be sadly missed.

It's all right, that's in every contract.
That's what they call a sanity clause.
