Comic Book Artist Steve Dillon Has Died

Recommended Posts

Steve Dillon, the comic book artist who co-created Preacher of DC Comics and worked with Marvel Comics has died at the age of 53-54. His brother Glyn Dillon confirmed his death on Twitter, and apparently Steve had some sickness. I didn't know the guy much to be honest, but upon looking at his art, he was a legend alright. My condolences go to his friends and family.

Here are some sources with more information:

I'm very sad to hear this. His work on Hellblazer, Preacher and Punisher is simply masterful, everything I ever wanted from a comic artist.

He was one of the best. I always enjoyed his take on The Punisher.
I haven't been this upset since I heard about the passing of Darwyn Cooke earlier this year.

Is it okay to miss him even though I never knew him? I don't wanna feel like one of those people who try to act like they knew someone just after they die.
