      Fucking shocked here.

      He may be to blame for Ben 10 Alien Force, but he also created Static, Icon and the rest of the Milestone universe, along with being one of the main reasons that Justice League Unlimited was as awesome as it was.

      That's what I choose to remember him for.

      Fucking shame, this is.

        Holy…Wow. How did he die? He wasn't all that old, was he?

        Well, R.I.P. to one of the minds behind things like JLU and the like.

            Born in 1963, so no.

            He died due to complications in surgery or something, though I can't find out what kind of surgery it was.

                I greatly enjoyed Justice League and Justice League Unlimited, and to be honest, from what I saw of Alien Force it seemed like an interesting direction to take the series. It was almost anime-esque.

                RIP, Dwayne.

                  Most of the stuff I've seen says that he was in pretty good health so either it was a relatively minor procedure that went horribly wrong or he was ill and didn't let people know about it.

                  Either way, it's a real shame.

                  Complicating things since 2009.

                      And I was just think about 'what if I wrote a Justice League series'.

                      That's awful. I may not of known of him very well, but I knew of the shows and comics quite well. What a shame and loss of good talent.

                          Took me by surprise too. I loved his works on JL series as well as Static. And heck say what you will about Alien Force but he at least tried to give it continuity. He was one of my favorite writers and inspirations in cartooning. I really hate to see him go.

                                              The is extremely shocking and depressing to me (especially when I found out the cause).

                                              I was really looking forward to meeting him this year as the milestone comics are some of the best books I have ever read (Milestone forever was one of the best comic endings ever too).

                                              I really enjoyed that he gave fans the time of day online and even gave some inside information about things he had pitched or original directions in which the story had to be changed from (like Justice League of America…)

                                              He will be sorely missed.

                                                This shocked the fuck out of me…..

                                                I was just reading his interview for All Star Superman the other day...

                                                Its so hard to believe.

                                                    So long Dwayne McDuffie, I salute you and shall miss you. You brought joy to the lives of many children with Static Shock and Justice League Unlimited.

                                                    It was also nice to see an African American comic book creator. But no matter what race you were you would be awesome. Even though I didn't like what he did to Ben 10 that's the only real blemish on his career. I could be horribly wrong about this but I believe he was the third most prominent man in the DCAU after Bruce Timm and Paul Dini, but don't quote me on that.

                                                    Whatever the case he seemed like a good man from interviews, was a pretty damn good writer and died too young. Far too young.

                                                    I wish there were more posts in this forum to honor this man.

                                                    My Hero Academia is my favorite manga series right now. At least so long as the high of its greatness remains. United States of Smash.
