Just read about Giffen this morning, damn shame.

Big fan of his Justice League and Lobo work.

A rare Giffen gem was his contribution to Penthouse Max*.
Very funny stuff, including his self depreciating humour.

RIP Keith.


*It was 1996, gimme a break ffs

Tony Husband, 73, political cartoonist.  But if you haven't heard of them then you might recognise their work from co-founding and co-editing Oink!

Haydn Gwyn, 66, actor - I know them from Drop the Dead Donkey, but apparently there's been quite a few roles after that.

Aw, man.  I loved Oink, and how my parents didn't ban it from my house I'll never know.  I remember Horace 'Ugly Face' Watkins being offered some kind of class A drug or other; not a common sight in kids' comics in the 80s.
(Also, Issue 2 had a joke about Prince Charles having a little willy. On the front cover.)  RIP Tony, you'll be missed.

An 86 year old man dies of natural causes and Sky News has reported nothing else for 30 minutes. It's not as if nothing else is happening.

Chandler Bing, best known for his recurring role as transatlantic jobbing actor Matthew Perry.

Matthew Perry was only 54 years old. He stated he'd possibly spent around 9 million dollars trying to get sober. It is an unhappy end to a career defined mainly through one role, Chandler in Friends, but Friends is one of the most successful TV programmes ever broadcast. Not many actors can claim they were in the zeitgeist show of their times.
