RIP Gonzalo Mayo
I saw on fb this morning that Kevin VanHook shared the news of Gonzalo Mayo's passing. Mayo was well known for his work on Vampirella and also inked a lot of classic Valiant comics. He has a very distinctive style that was instantly recognizable. Many that worked with him have shared what a pleasure it was to work with him. Rest in Peace, Gonzalo Mayo!

Dang, RIP
His distinctive inking is all over many Valiant classics, and he illustrated one of the all time great covers, Magnus 12
