I knew he was sick for a long time, so when I got the news of his death I wasn't too surprised, but definitely saddened. His works will live on forever, though. His runs on The Uncanny X-Men are definitely classics. FREE THE 29 MAY 1993 COME CONFIGURATION!

I remember getting a novel version of his work as a child. I really, really loved it. The world is a comedy for those who think and a tragedy for those who feel.
