Dave Stevens 1955 - 2008

Rocketeer_Adventure_Magazine_1.jpg
Dave Stevens, co creator of the Rocketeer and the artist who helped bring Bettie Page back in the spotlight passed away at the age of 52 due to complications with his battle with leukemia.

If, like me, you are unsure who Dave Stevens was, think The Rocketeer comic(and later the quite decent movie of the same name) and all will be explained.

Heidi Macdonald at The Beat remembers Stevens.

Mark Evanier remembers Stevens.

Archived interview with Dave Stevens.
