FAREWELL, RUBEN MERIGGI...


With action, adventure, weirdness and lust, you stirred the soul--and the libido--Mr. Meriggi.



Gazing upon any of your works, whether found in the startling pages of "Hiras"; "Dago", "Mermaids" and "Coven" or among your many barbarous bouts for Conan, Wolf and Crazy Jack, one had no choice but to fall under your spell.


You were a veritable master, praised, respected but still too often underrated. 


For those who knew you--knew the absolute grandeur of your artistry--you'll remain regarded among the creme de la creme: a creator that others will aspire to match, but one who'll always exist in a special, revered niche all his own.

  1. Thank you very much for remembering him. He was a great comic artist and best man. I was not close friend but have some nice chats in the comic events we met.

  2. You're so very welcome, Gamitiel. He gave us so much to enjoy. I'm envious of you. I'm certain he was fascinating to chat with, considering the enormity of his imagination.
