RIP, Al Williamson

EC Comic artist Al Williamson has died. He’s probably best known now for his work on the Star Wars strip. Comics Beat has an overview of his career and tributes from other artists. (thanks, Denis!)

RIP, Kazuo Ohno

Kazuo Ohno has died at 103. He was a great performer of Butoh, a Japanese dance drama form, and even if dance is not your thing, Japanese horror movies and possibly contemporary supernatural horror wouldn’t be the same without him.
