You worked your way up the ranks the good old fashioned way, Mr. Gafford, moving through Marvel, DC, Hanna-Barbera, Disney and Topps, ultimately forming the influential, fanzine organization, Blue Plaque Publications.
As an editor and colorist, you knew just what to trim and just what to inject to make a tale catch the eye.
Whether it was Scooby-Doo; Warlord; the Flash; Amethyst; Godzilla; Aquaman; the Flintstones; Batgirl; Yogi Bear; "Talespin"; Starman; Chip 'n Dale; the Frankenstein Monster; Captain Kirk; Captain Carrot; Dracula; "Duck Tales"; Mr. Spock; Ladybug; Captain Marvel (Shazam!); Aladdin; Tarzan; Teen Titans; or any number of the Super Friends in general, you gave them all your special touch. And in turn, you touched a generation of admirers, who'll never forget (and be forever grateful for) your vast and colorful contributions.
