Popular Post october Posted September 19, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 19, 2020 I got some sad news that Bob Meadows (Bomber Bob) passed away yesterday. There were several threads recently asking about him, so I figured I would post and let people know. I met Bob maybe 10 years ago, we were both living in Chicago at the time, and we shared some overlapping comic interests. I bought, sold, traded with him over the years and dealing with him was always a pleasure. I remember one particularly crazy C2E2, and meeting him for a beer and pizza afterwards at Ledo's in Countryside, and what it a relief it was to just relax and talk comics with another guy after all of the hectic commerce and focus on money. He was a really positive guy and alway upbeat. The hobby is lesser for the loss of him. He'll be missed.

Popular Post greggy Posted September 19, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 19, 2020 I have known that he has been sick for months. He was always friendly to me at WW Chicago and the funniest thing every year when I saw him there, he would introduced himself to me like we've never met.

Popular Post Lightning55 Posted September 19, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 19, 2020 I didn't know Bomber Bob, but sincere condolences to his family. It's always sad to hear of the passing of a devout fan of the hobby we all love. Hopefully people just move on to a universe-wide eternal comic con. That would be something.

Popular Post Get Marwood & I Posted September 19, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 19, 2020 This is very sad news to hear this morning, the passing of an established and clearly much liked board member. I never met Bob but we had a very nice PM exchange last year and he seemed wise and decent to me. RIP Bob, up there in comic heaven.

c_mkv Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 Man that sucks...Such a good guy. He was always trying to help the rest of us (especially noobs like myself) and had so much information to share. I knew he wasn’t doing well and this was coming but I’d kinda hoped he’d just pop up again. The boards just got a little darker, RIP Bob.
