Oldest living comic creators?

[JokersBoner]

Hi, I'm new here and have no CGC'd comics yet and am planning on only collecting signature series unless I come across something ridiculously high grade and rare.

 

Who are the oldest living comic creators (other than Stan Lee), and who are some that have passed away since CGC started? Show off some of your best comics too please!

[Bomfy]

Do you mean since CGC started the Signature Series or started being CGC. Those are two vastly different things. I think Michael Turner died within a year or two of the SS program going live, right?

 

I won't go over who has passed, since it's a lot and some true greats and I don't want to miss one.

 

Joe Sinnott is 86ish and is still signing up a storm.

Well several will be part of the upcoming DWC Legends Tour including Stan Lee, John Romita, Ayers, Joe Sinnott, Neal Adams and the list goes on.

Yeah, Michael Turner died in '08. If you're looking for the older creators b/c you're hoping to get a sig before they pass on, keep in mind that Turner is a great example of why you should always go for your favorites, regardless of age. He died very young.

Sadly, Peter David's stroke is another example of why you shouldn't wait on SS. I hope his recovery is going well.

Josh Medors is another who just passed away recently who was young. Wish i would have got him done when i had the chance.

 

Nick Cardy is still alive and getting on in years. Same with Joe Staton. I'm hoping to get both done this year.

Joe staton is not that old. He 62 or maybe 63. Super cool guy.

[telerites]

Bellman and Bald are two still with us.

 

My hope is to add Ken Bald to this (he will be in Baltimore later this year)
