RIPs

[Hawkmumbler]

Oh my. Utterly devastated, his Indigo Orime run was a huge draw factor for me staying with the prog in my formative oeriod in 2011/12. This is what it must have felt like to lose Ron Smith, i'm at a complete loss.

What?!


WHAT?!

This utterly horrible news he was one of my absolute favourite of the 21st century droids - his art was always so rammed with detail and so extraordinarily intricate. Incredible artist, this is devastating.

It's apt 2000 AD's twitter shared this spread of his as it's one I genuinely remember looking at and thinking "now this is classic 2000 AD art"



Horrible, horrible news thoughts are with those he's left.

Yes shocking news about Edmund Bagwell. 50 is no age at all.

Not sure what you mean about Ron Smith. Last I checked he was very much still alive.  (?)

I adored his work on Indigo Prime, my condolences to his friends and family.

Obviously totally inconsequential compared to the reality of losing your life at such a young age, and the impact on family and friends, but what a terrible, terrible loss to comics. Bagwell was an extraordinary artist, one of the very brightest lights of recent years, and I could never understand why he wasn't instantly snapped up by Vertigo etc. the moment his first page appeared in print.

Feck, what an awful shame. My sincerest sympathies to his loved ones and those who knew him.

Not Ron Smith! I meant Belardinli! Brain fart from the sadness of it all. Sorry.

[Goaty]

Aw no! One of artists with so beautiful details. Thought he was 30s but surprise not.

Thank you for great Cradlegrave .

[SuperSurfer]

Devastating news.

My thoughts go out to his family, friends, former colleagues.

A truly phenomenal artist.

Jeez, terribly sad news and the loss of a real talent. My condolences to family and friends.

[Frank]

One of the very best of all time. I'm going to hug D'Israeli, Flint, and Willsher a little more tightly tonight.

Jeez, terribly sad news and the loss of a real talent. My condolences to family and friends.

And I imagine a lot of us here are in the ballpark of 50 (give or take 5-10 years) - too damned young!

[von Boom]

Unbelievably sad news about Edmund Bagwell. Such a tragedy for his friends and family. My heartfelt condolences to them.

[Link Prime]

Terrible news.
A comic artist who's art had it all. Fantastic draftsmanship, great storytelling, wonderful design, dynamic energy and loads of imagination. Such a same there won't be more of it.
