Re: Gary Adkison. October 28, 1940 - June 30, 2023.

Oh... that's terribly sad news. Gary was such a great guy and so helpful with fellow collectors and enthusiasts. His stories of the earliest days of MtG were simply fascinating. He was such a gift to the Magic community.

RIP Gary... you will be missed.

Re: In Memoriam of Artists That Are Gone. Last Update 21 July, 2022.

Sad to hear... was hoping I was wrong. He signed a few cards for me years ago through the mail. Seemed like a nice guy. The post I linked showed a Dragon magazine cover he illustrated... I instantly recognized it as one I loved back in the day (still have it).

Hey Dragsamou,

I heard that Roger Raupp passed away - any info on that? Looks like it was in December of 2019...

Have you heard anything about this?

Re: In Memoriam of Artists That Are Gone. Last Update November 2020.

Yeah, it happens whether I know or don't, so it's good to learn the truth. Still doesn't make it any less sad, though....

Thanks for keeping us up to date, even if it's tough (especially this year).

Best wishes,

Ugh... I'm going to have to quit logging in here... makes me sad. :'-(

Martin McKenna was such a great guy - always signed for me back in the day. He will be missed.

Re: The Gathering Original Sketch Cards available for sale

Hey Spooky,

Gosh, I remember images everywhere when the Kickstarter was going... funny how things can disappear even in a digital age. #-o

I didn't get the full set; only the book and the 6 cards that came with it (2 originals and 4 prints). Best of luck in your search!!!

Ugh... super sad to hear about Thomas Gianni. I used to write him letters and have him sign my cards TTM - great guy. :-( :-( :-(

RIP

BTW, I threw in a few bids - probably won't win but might help drive up the price for you. :wink:

Re: Compilation of Garfield altered text cards

Hey Zaphodava, Awesome thread and worthy endeavor - thanks for starting it. =D> I was at GenCon in '95 and I remember a giveaway at the WotC booth where they had a bunch of cards altered by Richard Garfield. One of the employees stood in front of the crowd and read off what each card was altered to,...
