Mike Wieringo is dead

[Anarky]

Yesterday was a sad day for the comic book world as one of its greats suddenly passed away. On Sunday, Mike Wieringo passed away. He was forty-four years old and a vegetarian. His friend and colleague Todd Dezaog said that Wieringo was "one of the healthiest ones of us in the bunch." Wieringo had no apparent history of disease or heart problems and kept on working every day, but, ultimately, it was a sudden heart attack that cost him his life.

And here's the source. A sad day indeed.
