VALIANT creator John Dixon passed away
Some of you probably read this earlier.
Sorry to say that one of Valiant's original creators - John Dixon - passed away last week.
Jim Shooter brought John over to ink many of the original titles like Harbinger, Bloodshot, Eternal Warrior, H.A.R.D. Corps, Shadowman and Doctor Solar, Man of the Atom. John had a long career, described on his wiki page.

Here's a couple shots of Jim and John from the early days of Valiant.
