Well that's Depressing
I just discovered that one of my favorite artists has died at the age of 93. Nick Cardy passed away, and I am bummed.
His artwork was sublime, his covers equally so.
Dang.

About Me
- Name: SallyP
- Location: Windsor Locks, Connecticut, United States
I am a middle-aged suburban housewife with four kids and a husband, two dogs and a cat who has trouble figuring out what the litter box is for. I probably have waaaay too much time on my hands. Actually, in updating this, the cat is gone, and most of the kids have moved out, but we still have all of their stuff, so it is a good thing that we have a big house. Also, I have become a Grandmother!

Yeah, another one of the greats is gone. :(
He did some stunning work. I clicked through the retrospective at Comics Should Be Good and was surprised at all the covers I recognized without realizing he was the artist.
Nick Cardy did a LOT of covers! Absolutely beautiful covers. Not to mention the interiors. Bat Lash remains my favorite, but he did a heck of a lot of wonderful stuff. His line work was impeccable.
I'm feeling old.
I've never read Bat Lash, despite being a huge admirer of Mr Cardy's work. I must rectify that.
Rest in peace, sir.
