Hi everyone,

Sorry to hear this terrible news.  He was too young.  He is well appreciated here for uploading so many great books, and for his vast knowledge of Golden Age comic books.  Condolences to his family and friends.

Sad news.  What Robb writes goes for me too.
Lou's work in researching obscure Superheroes and masked mystery men was exceptional, and he scanned and provided great comics for all of us.
My thoughts are with his family and friends.

 Another one good one gone too soon. His generous sharing was responsible for a good bit of my library. I didn't realize how deeply involved he was in the indexing and even writing for the industry. Such a loss for us all! Darkmark, I raise a glass to you- Cheers, Bowers
