Joe Kubert, RIP

image

His was a remarkable career of perpetual accomplishment, with enough work done in three or four entirely distinct phases to generate a sizable obituary all on their own. Joe Kubert's artwork was idiosyncratic and authoritative; it is amazing we have so much of work that looks that good. Kubert had one of the looser styles -- yet always anchored by fundamentals of craft -- to ever find an audience with North American comics fans. You can spot a Joe Kubert from half a room away. Kubert was a devoted family man, and our condolences to all the Kubert, all of his students, his friends and peers, and his many, many fans.
