British artist Kevin O'Neill has died on November 3rd. He was 69.
I loved his League of Extraordinary Gentleman which I always bought when it came out, which I seldom do today. His artwork was wonderful, but I can understand that it wasn't for everybody. Still, I think it pure genius.
A page from League of Gentleman 2, illustrating John Carter of Mars and his army.
I always wanted to sample his 2000AD work Nemesis the Warlock, but never came to it.
RIP Kevin O'Neill.

Beautiful art. I was sad to hear of his death as well, and somewhat taken aback; I don't think he was "all that old." A turn of phrase that occurs when one is 64 and suddenly 69 doesn't seem "all that old."
Those early League books were absolutely brilliant.
Best regards,
Steve
