RIP Scott Clark.....

Scott Clark, the longtime WildStorm, Aspen and DC Comics artist, passed away yesterday, according to his Facebook page. He was 43.

Clark, who established himself with some smaller publishers in the early ’90s, really became known through his work with WildStorm. After some time working on Marvel titles, he returned to the (now DC-owned) WildStorm universe after a brief fling with Aspen Comics and some work on DC company projects like Justice League: Cry for Justice and Brightest Day. Most recently, he drew the New 52 run on Grifter.
Scott was a long time collaborator with friend of the show, Dave Beaty, and passed away far too young...... RIP

He lived in town, and when I used to work at Maximum Comics he would do signing with Dave Beaty every so often. He and Dave would stay and do sketches for everyone in line no matter how long it took. Scott used to stop by the shop with his teenaged son all the time to look at art and get insperation and chit chat with me and the other people working at the store. He would show me Rob Liefelds's scripts from Grifter and art samples.

He was an extremely nice and humble person.

This is really sad news. He was too young to die. My thoughts are with his family.

I still remember the first time I saw his art. It was in Stormwatch and I thought it was great. And he continued to do great work over the decades.
