Writer and colourist Roger Slifer has passed away from complications following a hit-and-run incident in 2012. Mark Evanier has more details at News from ME: Roger Slifer, R.I.P.
His work included writing for a number of 1970s series such as Defenders, Marvel Two-in-One, Power Man, Iron Man and Avengers. Later he wrote Omega Men for DC where he co-created Lobo before working in animation on a number of my childhood cartoons such as Transformers, Conan the Adventurer and Jem and the Holograms.
The circumstances of the accident and his condition in his final months are heartbreaking.

I remember seeing his name in loads of comics. Shame he's died at such a young age.
