Mike Wieringo 1963 - 2007

Tocaba post con las altas y bajas de Avilés, pero que le vamos a hacer...


Como ya sabe todo el mundo el pasado domingo falleció Mike Wieringo a la edad de 44 años. Ya sabíais que Mike es (todavía me queda mucho suyo por leer) uno de mis tres dibujantes preferidos al cual le he dedicado algún post en el pasado, he seguido su blog diariamente desde hace más de un año y no os podéis ni imaginar el buen rollo que emanaba Mike en sus post y en sus dibujos. Para terminar os dejo con una carta escrita por el co-creador junto con Mike de Tellos en la cual se deja ver lo agradable que Mike era, un saludo a todos.

From Todd Dezago

my best friend, mike wieringo, died yesterday.

he was a vegetarian.
he worked out everyday.
sometimes these things just happen.

he loved comics.
he loved drawing comics.
he felt very, very fortunate to have been working in
comics.
he was very good at it.

his comics, like him, were full of life.
full of energy. full of fun and hope.

he was my best friend.

we worked together on spider-man, the x-men, tellos,
and several other projects that will now never come to
pass.
we grew up together with comics, though we were
hundreds of miles away. we enjoyed all the same things
about comics; the action, the adventure, the fun. he
was a joy to work with. we laughed all the time. all
the time.

comics were his life and he worked very hard on them.
sometimes 16 or 18 hours a day.
he loved comics and loved the people who read them.
he loved you.

he was my best friend.
he was my brother.
i will miss him more than i can say.

todd
