Mystery Man Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 It has been reported over at http://www.comicsbeat.com/ that Joe Simon, co-creator of Captain America and one of the last remaining threads connecting us to the beginning of the comics medium has passed away at 98. If you've never read any of the Golden Age Cap stories, I heartily recommend them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mystery Man Posted December 16, 2011 Author Share Posted December 16, 2011 sad news indeed... I got myself that big ol' Simon and Kirby book some time back, its a good read indeed I've got the Simon & Kirby Super Heroes one but still need to pick up the CRIME one. I'm sure it'll hold up fantastically... now I want it even more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
