In case you have not seen the update at GIJoeClub.com, original G.I. Joe artist Sam Petrucci passed away last week. Our condolences go out to his family. Please see the information at the club site.

Very sad news indeed. He was a great guy and will sorely be missed.
Thanks for the heads up, SB. As you mentioned, the original write-up by the G.I.Joe Club can be seen here: http://gijoeclub.com/ RIP Mr. Petrucci. |

Indeed we have, my friend. The 12" line of Joes was just before my time, but needless to say the impact of this loss will be felt through all channels of the G.I.Joe community. Mr. Petrucci actually made the cover for the G.I.Joe documentary. If you don't have it, it's definitely worth picking up: http://www.gijoedocumentary.com/artwork.html |

No problem. This man lived a full life and made some awesome accomplishments. I wonder if he knew that GI Joe would have lasted this long and make such a mark in history. I send my utmost respect to him and I thank him for letting me experience the greatest fantasy fighting force ever created during my childhood years.
