The news making the rounds is that Gene Colan’s liver is failing.

I was lucky enough to meet Mr. Colan last year at the New York Comic Con. I received a Howard the Duck sketch, he signed a copy of Daredevil #54 that I purchased earlier, and – and most importantly – I got to shake his hand and say “thank you”.

Action has been taken and plans are being put into place to offer Gene and his wife Adrienne assistance during this time.

Information and the address to send cards and letters to can be found here. Clifford Meth is organizing an auction. If you have items you’d like to donate or want information on bidding, click here. Mark Evanier writes about the Colans here. The Beat.

My thoghts are with the Colans, their family, and friends.
