I havn't been on the computer in the past ..2 days or so, so I was reading some articles on ONTD, and I happen to past by one by Anthony Bourdain, who was doing a tribute to Harvey Pekar and I thought Harvey Pekar, you rarely hear much about him.. so I was reading the article and it said.. We love you Harvey you will truly be missed.
I thought missed? He's still alive. ... Isn't he? So I went on to wikipedia, and it confirmed my suspicions, apparently his wife found him dead in their house at 1:00am due to unknown causes. Just incase you arn't aware,
Harvey Pekar is the writer of the comic American Splendor, a movie also came out about his life titled "American Splendor" I think I made a few posts about it when I saw the movie and wanted to read the comic..
It was a good film, it showed you basically his entire adult life story, so when I heard of his death I was surprised and sad, considering what he went through, struggling to get the comic off the ground, battling cancer, etc.
Rest in Peace. Harvey.
