For a dude who publically acknowledges his clinical depression, that was very impressive.

I lost my mother last spring, just about a month before Mother's day. I can relate to that video. My parents were married 56 years. My father acts normal, but he's pretty broken inside.

Preacher Co-Creator Steve Dillon Dead at 54

Fan-favorite artist Steve Dillon—best known for co-creating Preacher and defining runs on The Punisher and Hellblazer—has passed away.

Reports of Dillon’s death began hitting Twitter this morning, with confirmation coming from Dillon’s brother Glynis. Details as to the cause of death are yet unknown.

Born in Luton, Bedfordshire, England in 1962, Dillon’s early career began in the British comics industry, with stints in the legendary 2000 A.D. comics magazine. Writer Garth Ennis and Dillon were one of modern comics’ most beloved tandems, having first made a big splash in American comics with their work on John Constantine in Hellblazer for DC Comics’ Vertigo imprint and later co-creating Preacher in 1995. Ennis and Dillon went on to deliver what many say is the best-ever take on The Punisher in the mid-2000s. Dillon’s most recent work has been on an ongoing Punisher series with writer Becky Cloonan. io9 mourns the loss of this amazing talent.

Preacher Co-Creator Steve Dillon Dead at 54

Suck.

Hellblazer and Preacher are amongst my top ten favorite comic lines. I bought every episode of each show as soon as they were made available.

I even own the TPB's for "Books of Magic" where Constantine shows up with Tim Hunter.

This is a great loss to the creative world.

What actors would be examples of uninteresting faces?

What actors would be examples of uninteresting faces?

[PPatty]

That's a really interesting face. Not necessarily an attractive one to many people, but interesting. Who is that?

[Mileron]

That's a really interesting face. Not necessarily an attractive one to many people, but interesting. Who is that?

Looks like Ron Howard's brother, Clint

Shameful. You lose nerd points for not recognizing him as the Star Trek kid.

[Bonlainy]

Yep, pretty sure that is Clint Howard.

In today's news Leon Russell dies at 74. Very talented musician and songwriter, with an interesting voice. My favorite song of his is still Tight Rope.

[Delores Mulva]

Cause of death is out for Leonard Cohen: he fell during the night, then died in his sleep:
