Saturday, May 27, Alex Toth passed away at his drawing table. He was 78. One of the most influential comics and animation artists in the business, Toth created a huge body of work though most people will only recognize his Hanna Barbera design work from the 60's and 70's; he created the design elements (the model sheets, the 'look and feel') for Space Ghost and Johnny Quest among others. He also has a large body of Zorro work. More can be seen at TothFans, which also has funeral arrangements in the forums.
