Jim Aparo dies at 72

A Death In The Family

Jim Aparo was a massive influence on me artistically. I learned a lot of what I know about drawing comics from his work. His run on The Brave and The Bold was unprecedented. A joy of my childhood.

The Aparo family has asked that in lieu of Flowers or gifts, anyone wishing to honor Jim's legacy make a contribution to any worthy charity, as Jim believed that all charities were worth donating to.

For those wishing to send along their condolences and best wishes to the family, a P.O. Box has been set up for the family to receive cards. The address is:
THE APARO FAMILY
P.O. BOX 28
NORWALK, CONNECTICUT 06852 - 0028
