One of my favorite cartoonists, Gahan Wilson
"American author, cartoonist and illustrator Gahan Wilson died yesterday, according to his family’s GoFundMe page. He was 89. The notice reads, The world has lost a legend. One of the very best cartoonists to ever pick up a pen and paper has passed on. He went peacefully — surrounded by those who loved him.
so many gems...

Re: D.C. Fontana, ST: TOS writer at 80
Jar asks:
Interesting but what is the original series?
ST:TOS = Star Trek, The Original Series with
William Shatner (Kirk), Leonard Nimoy (Spock), DeForest Kelly (Bones), Nichelle Nichols (sp-Lt. Uhuru), James Doohan (Scotty)...
late '60's, cancelled and replaced by "Lost In Space"!
