CBR: Artist Seth Fisher Passes Away
Seth Fisher, an extremely talented artist who worked for various DC Comics divisions and
Heavy Metal in addition to pursuing numerous illustration and game design opportunities, has passed away, according
to a report filed by Comic Book Resources. Fisher
maintained a personal/professional site stuffed with artwork and photos. His books included
Green Lantern: Willworld, the
Flash: Time Flies one-shot, a brief run on
Doom Patrol,
Vertigo Pop Tokyo,
Happydale: Devils in the Desert, and
Fantastic Four/Iron Man: Big In Japan. Fisher's artwork, a vibrant combination of approaches hinting at comics from all over the world, was of such a high quality that he had become one of those artists interested readers, myself included, sought out despite the project. Interviews with Fisher can be found
here and
here. He was nominated for an Eisner Award in 2003. Although I'm unable to find the cartoonist's age, he spoke about being a freshman in college in 1991, which could conceivably put him in his early to mid-30s.
