My buddy Bob Wayne just notified me of Bob Beerbohm's passing yesterday which seemed a bit odd only because he'd just responded to a FB posting very recently, either yesterday or the day before. Those who knew Bob or of Bob, knew him as a cantankerous sort, often stubborn, but a devoted comics fan and a historian ...albeit controversial... on the subject of comics for many years. He was most known by legend on these and other forums where he posted his views. He was especially well known to those who ran afoul of his passionate beliefs which he held onto like a junkyard dog. Bob was a devoted family man, collector and comic dealer, active from the late 60's on in the Bay area for many years. His writings, while often contentious, were filled with information and well researched, even when he may have reached conclusions not agreed with by consensus. His dedication to the hobby and advocacy will be missed. Obadiah Oldbuck will have a new chapter with Bob's arrival.
Rest In Peace, dude! ![](images/emoticons/icon_beer.png) ![](images/emoticons/icon_heart.png) |
