Long time member of the BPMS, Dave Cockrum passed away recently after several years of being very ill. Dave's art will stand forever emblazoned on everyone's memories. Without Dave, there wouldn't have been the X-Men and many other contributions to comic book art. A good retrospective of Dave's career can be found on the Steve Bunche Blog (He was also a former employee of Marvel.)
