Co creator of Swamp Thing, an amazing artist, worked on Ghostbusters and Creepshow and other movies. A huge loss for those of us nerds/geeks who love his work. RIP Bernie.

I remember him well from my youth.

Loved his work for Warren (black and white Eerie and Creepy).

Some of his covers - simply amazing

Comfort to his family

Thank you for the memories - collecting comics with my dad
