The Living Have Spoken
Jack Kirby (1994)
The comic book industry produced only one king, his name was Jack Kirby. The visions he translated to art boards transcended the medium and the very fabric of reality. The industry, and the entire planet, were much richer having Jack Kirby educate and entertain in the 20th Century. A true creative genius.
Philip Seymour Hoffman (2014)
Maybe the best actor ever. Can make you laugh, can make you cry, in a bunch of bangers. Seemingly a good dad because his son's a good actor too. Addiction is a hell of a thing. RIP to a real one.
Graveyard Gossip
Ennio Morricone (2020)
A genius at musical storytelling, his works span so many genres yet all are remarkable & memorable. While he is perhaps best known for the classic westerns directed by Sergio Leone, he also scored films like The Untouchables and Cinema Paradiso. His soundtrack to The Mission is one of my favorites!
Tim Curry (2026)
Iconic character actor. Captivating to watch. Natural scene stealer. I remember first seeing him as the Butler, Wadworth, in the movie Clue.
