I was made sad today by the news that Earl Kress had passed away from complications due to cancer. Kress was someone whose talents I had admired in shows like Pinky and the Brain and Road Rovers, and the various WB-related comic books. I met him once, under happy circumstances (a lunch I hosted for Kress, Charlie Howell, Tom Ruegger et alia at the Penn Club in New York); he struck me as a soft-spoken and altogether decent man. I am very sorry to see him pass on. My condolences to the family.
