For Steve Gerber...

Description

For those who don't know, Steve Gerber was a prolific comic book writer since the 70's, and was the man probably most responsible for my creating Dead Duck. His own creation, "Howard The Duck," really grabbed me back in 1986 when I was twelve and read the Marvel Comic books he wrote, and inspired me to create several of my own duck characters, ending with my best at age 14, Dead Duck himself. Though our concepts are radically different, if it wasn't for his work, I don't know if I ever would have become as "duck crazy" as I did. Having just read of his death a day ago, I felt I needed to pay tribute in some small way.
