Comics legend and Inkwell Awards Hall of Fame recipient Dick Giordano has passed away. I give my sincere condolences from the Inkwell Awards family. A statement from Bob Layton is below:
"Dear Friends & Colleagues,It is my sorrowful duty to announce that legendary artist/editor/entrepreneur Dick Giordano passed away today.Few could ever hope to match what he accomplished in his chosen profession, or to excel while maintaining great humor, compassion for his peers and an unwavering love for the art form.His unique vision changed the comic industry forever and all of those who work in the business continue to share in the benefits of his sizable contributions.I have been honored to call him a business partner, mentor and dear friend throughout the majority of my lifetime.We will not see his like again.
Regretfully,Bob Layton"

I'm glad we played a small part in him getting an Inkwell Hall of Fame trophy last year. It's always great to receive recognition when your still around to appreciate it.
