Welcome to the Toon Pro dot com.
My name is Gauthier. I'm a comics cop.
I bust the hustlers and rip-off bums, while defending the good guys.
Since I already have a couple of more traditional sites on which to toot my own horn
(Mr. Ed Weirdo and the Edmond Gauthier poetry archive),
this one is reserved for investigating everyone else's cartoon-related cases.
I doodle but I don't doddle. I engage in just the facts. The names have not been changed to protect the guilty.
They call me the Toon Pro!

THE DEATH OF THE DEAN


GENE "THE DEAN" COLAN:
Along with a handful of artists including Kirby and Ditko,
Colan mastered a myriad of artistic areas.


This week contains some sad news - the passing at age 84 of Gene Colan, one of the top comics creators of all time.

The usual "end of an era" and "he will be missed" quotes don't begin to describe what a loss this is for the hundreds of thousands of Colan fans around the world.

His superhero artwork has been inspiring awe since the 1960s dawn of what became known as the Marvel Age of Comics.
