Notorious crimes involving comics? Tell me some tales please.

Wasn't there a board member who killed his wife,then killed himself?

I'm afraid so.

I thought so,do you remember his board name?

Off the top of my head, no. He was from Northern California I believe. There were several boardies who knew him.

Board member Deamentia.

 

 

Read about this on Kotaku when it happened. Didn't realize he posted here until Wally started a thread later the next year. Really tragic.

 

Looking back at his final postings one was in his own HBD thread. The eeriness of the internet lies in the permanence of someone's postings long after they're gone.

Even scarier and disturbing when you hang around one of 'em.

 

Not comic book related but still...

 

This was maybe 10 years ago (Cue The fog's John Houseman )

 

My brother had this girlfriend and her brother used to come by for beer one in a while,

most normal fella you ever seen,cars rock bands,chicks,simple regular chat

of daily life.

 

After my brother separated,we found out in the papers the brother was known

in an adjacent neighborhood as the screwdriver rapist

 

He wouldn't actually use the tool just threaten to use it ....

 

Sometimes i think about the chicks talk...

Weird thing is Spice is not illegal. You can pick that garbage up at the local gas/ convenience store.
