Took a nap. Woke up to find Dwayne McDuffie had died. Interviewed him about Deathlok for TwoMorrows years ago; brilliant and nice man. Why?

Horribly tragic news are Dwayne McDuffie. http://on.cbr.cc/hLi4XJ Didn't know him, but condolences to his family and friends.

#DwayneMcDuffie was one of two writers on Deathlok, the first series I edited. No slight to the other guy, but Dwayne was the more…

At least when I knew him, #DwayneMcDuffie was disorganized. His desk was chaos, and he was forever misplacing stuff.

— Tom Brevoort (@TomBrevoort) February 23, 2011

#DwayneMcDuffie had a chemistry background if I recall right. Might have become a scientist but enjoyed making up shit more.

So I interned for #DwayneMcDuffie when I was first starting out at Marvel. First thing to know: he was huge, 6'4" or thereabouts.

C2E2 has been kind enough to offer a memorial panel for #DwayneMcDuffie as well. Details to follow.

Suddenly, all the things that are stressing me seem very trivial. #DwayneMcDuffie was a terrific writer and terrific guy and I'll miss him.

Man, all I want today is just to be a better person today. That's all I want. To measure up to Dwayne. #DwayneMcDuffie

I'm really heartsick about Dwayne. Such an unbelievably talented man, and a true guardian of the DC Universe.

R.I.P. Dwayne McDuffie, one of the finest Black writers of our time. My childhood wouldn't have been the same without you.
