    Very sad, indeed...

    Here's a news story about this (correction: he was actually 89 years old, presumably not having turned 90 yet):

    Through the characters he created and the toons he made, his name will live on forever.

    This may explain--

    --why the Timberwolf webtoons have been rerunning at the Warner Bros. site. The last new one was "Bite Me", I believe.

    The last of the old guard is gone. It is truly a sad day.

    I don't know what to say...Chuck will always be remembered.
    And besides, most people look at this type of topic unrealistically. They are all under the apparent misconception tha--oh, wait. Is my post over? Ah, okay.

    There are few people that have been a bigger influence on animation in general than Chuck. He will never be forgotten.
