Joe Kubert, a true legend, teacher, & friend...

"Joe Kubert died yesterday but he lives on with his family, students, work, and the wonderful life and energy he shared with all those he came in contact. I read his stories when I was very young and my dad worked at a barbershop. I read the Tarzan and war stories. Later, I saw the ads for his school. I lived in the west coast and could not attend.

I always admired his work, his movement to write stories that were meaningful to all of us. I was very fortunate to meet him circa 2010, and to count him as a dear friend. I have respect for him.

Do yourself a favor and read some of his personal works. If you never met him in person you will meet him in his work."
