Andre LeBlanc passed away...

"I want to wish everyone a great holiday. I also have some sad news. My close friend, Andre LeBlanc, died two days ago. There is a picture of him on my site:  http://www.sunlink.net/~rhoades Andre was a great guy and a great artist. Much of his work was uncredited as was customary for the comics in the 40's and 50's. He assisted Eisner on the Spirit in the 40's and had two syndicated strips of his own creation while living in Brazil: "Morena Flor" and "Intellectual Amos." He also was the artist for "Apartment 3 G" and "Rex Morgan MD" and assited on Sy Barry's "The Phantom," and Dan Barry's "Flash Gordon." (He did receive a byline for Flash Gordon. He also did a lot of comic books, text books, magazines and achieved fame for Brazilian literary classics and for "The Picture Bible" a complete illustrated bible with thousands of drawings which sold millions of copies worldwide. He also did animation for television and taught at the School of Visual Arts in NY city. He was an unforgetable man, kind, generous, talented and will be greatly missed by everyone who knew him."
(Ed Rhoades)
