I had a basic grasp of Mr. Schwartz’s importance to our field, but very little knowledge of his contributions to science fiction and fandom. It’s encouraging to read about someone who kept both his professionalism and his passion alive for so long; and also good to see that the comics community has an appreciation of its artform’s history, and honors those who played such a critical part in it. Similarly, I was encouraged to read just today of
Brad Meltzer, Joe Quesada, Brian Michael Bendis and others joining to found the Siegel & Shuster Society, to preserve
Jerry Siegel’s home in Cleveland for its historical importance. (Maybe a topic for your column sometime?)
