Glantern Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Just found out that legendary Hulk and GI Joe artist Herb Trimpe died today. Link. A few years ago, he was at Baltimore Comiccon, and my kid brother, who is a huge Hulk fan, wanted to meet him. Herb had a long line and had been signing all day, so he wanted to wrap things up. My brother was just after the cut off and was rather upset, saying that Herb was his favorite Hulk artist. Herb heard this and responded with a quick "and you are my favorite Hulk fan" and drew my brother a Hulk sketch for free. He was such a great guy. This news makes me really sad.

bigvis497 Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 The definitive Hulk artist. He attended my college after his comic career wrapped up. We missed each other by a few years, however one of my art teachers had him in a class and I got to hear some cool stories. He certainly had a unique style. RIP Herb!

fwoosheyman Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 I was a big fan of the Marvel Transformers & GI JOE comics when I was a kid. Looking back at what he created for each series it is some of my favorite art. RIP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
