RIP Alex Toth

Postby Xenorama » Mon May 29, 2006 12:16 pm

famed comic book artist/cartoonist Alex Toth passed away yesterday. more talent in his little pinky than 90% of "artists" in comics today. he also created Space Ghost, the Herculoids and many other HB cartoons.

God bless him. May he RIP.

Space Ghost was always one of my favorites back when we first got Cartoon Network.. Now the channel is a desolate wasteland featuring only one show I like (Foster's Home For Imaginary Friends.)

I'm going way off topic though.. Suffice to say that I wish I had "Boomerang" so I could potentially see SG again. :(

Did Toth design Birdman, and the Galaxy Trio too?

i believe he did all of the HB heroes back then, and perhaps some of the comical characters, but i am not sure about that.

:( We're gonna miss you Mr. Toth.

It's a real shame that WB never released a 'Complete Space Ghost' DVD set - I would've loved to hear what Mr. Toth would've had to say on creating the character.
