I appreciate what he did for comics with Milestone, specifically Static. I did like his animation stuff more than his comics, but damn, it always sucks to see a creator pass.

I thought he was the best writer on the animated Justice League series; he did most of it.
I'll still remember his first for creating Damage Control in the late 1980's, because that's where I first heard his name. No one had ever done a concept like that before.
He was a big, heavyset guy. Could it have been weight related...?

Word is that he had surgery last night, and there were complications.

SPOILERS!
but in all seriousness that's pretty tragic. Wasn't a fan of his work (well his current stuff), but he was fairly young to go.

I don't know about all this stuff about JLA but he did good work for Milestone. Damn he went too early.

Loved Dwayne, great writer for JLU, Ben 10, and Static Shock. Some of my favorite shows.
This is shocking.

some of these posts seem a little disrespectful, you all have the rights to your own opinions but to voice them here isn't the most couth. I pray Dwayne rest in peace.

it's not disrespectful to criticize his work and dislike him professionally.
Of course it is sad that he died and i am sure their family are suffering but this thread isnt a Sermon or some Funeral eulogy.
it would be disrespectful or rude if we were at church or a family gathering but this is a thread about the man nothing else.
we dont censor ourselves and our opinion just b/c.

I find it hard to understand why a thread about the death of an individual should be used for anything other than to pay respects, another thread could be made to discuss his works. of course if having enough maturity to do so is beyond certain individuals, I'll hold my tongue from now on.

i think its just a case of people who don't want to seem like flip floppers. criticized him in life, wished to reiterate their dislike of his work after his passing
meh.
