Which JSA member had the most fascinating career behind the mask? TV station manager? Brilliant scientist? Daring archaeologist? Dedicated physician? Wealthy socialite, or even a florist? We get to work on it in today’s episode of JSA in the 90s Podcast! fireandwaterpodcast.com/show/jsapresen…

On behalf of his family, we are sad to share that Gerry Conway has passed away. Gerry was a tremendous icon in comics who shaped pop culture itself. He was a dear friend, partner, and mentor, and our hearts are with his family and the millions he touched through his work.

Durante una época no hubo cómic que no abrieras y estuviera su nombre. D.E.P. Mr. Conway.

Gerry Conway's contributions to our medium are immense. I consider myself fortunate to have been able to collaborate with him and experience his talent firsthand. As an editor, Gerry was the first person who gave me a chance to write, for which I'll aways be grateful. RIP, buddy.

Gerry Conway’s work inspired comic readers for generations, and it still reaches people today through big budget movies, shows, and more. Others will write better tributes about his work. I just want to focus on my own personal interactions with him.

Some of you know I spent years cheering on one of Gerry’s creations, Firestorm. I’ve said most of what I have to say about his work through my FIRESTORM FAN website over 7 years, and the AQUAMAN & FIRESTORM: THE FIRE AND WATER PODCAST over 8 years.

As for Gerry himself, he was incredibly kind and generous. I interviewed him 7 times for different blogs and podcasts. The fact that he put up with me that many times says a lot about his patience and his big heart.

He was always open about both his successes and his struggles, and he had a sharp, easy charm. After the interviews, we would often just talk about raising kids and everyday life. He was also very thoughtful, even sending me signed items from his collection just to be nice.

I always hoped I would get to meet him in person someday. I really regret that I never did. I don’t usually feel this sad when celebrities pass, since I don’t truly know them, but Gerry was different. He was one of the greats, and he was always kind to me. He will be missed.
