This bums me out. A great and underrappreciated talent. Plus he had a lot of wisdom on what these characters should look like.

So long, Mr. Toth. My childhood wouldn't have been the same without you.

I really liked the Plastic Man archives cover he did a few years back.
A great, great talent.

It wasn't until a few short years ago that I found out that Toth was responsible for the Superfriends show that I loved as a really littler kid. This is a sad moment for me.

I didn't know he'd done the character designs on all those classic cartoons.

He was awesome. I loved reading his one page, hard to read essays in Alter Ego every month. It does seem emptier there without him.
