Even Sadder? NO ONE SEEMS TO EFFING CARE!

Thu Nov 5, 2009, 10:18 PM
Sheldon Dorf, the founder of the best networking hub for artists, San Diego Comic Con, freaking passes away... I owe him so much. If it werent for SDCC I wouldnt have had either of my jobs at Gentle Giant or Sideshow putting me where I am today... and Im sure that goes for many artists out there.

Thank you Sheldon! YOU EFFING ROCK!

Its a damned shame that no one seems to give to sh!ts about this. I mean, seriously. The FOUNDER of San Diego Comic Con? Do people realize what this man is responsible for?

Its so sad that no one is making news of this, or commenting on it, ANYWHERE. Effing pathetic.

No disrespect to anyone else, but I remember a pretty big name passing away not too long ago in the comic book industry and people acted like the earth turned on it's axis.

Sheldon Dorf is THE man, THE MAN. None of us can even begin to fathom accomplishing something as great as he has.

If you seriously care about this industry you'll make as many people aware of what this man has done and that he's gone now... one of the most SELFLESS people who has indirectly improved COUNTLESS peoples lives is gone from this planet.
