  1. Dying just few days after Hart’s death.

    There’s something moving about that.

  2. These two were giants. They had the two most consistently funny comic strips ever. They will be missed.

  4. Rest in peace, Brant, hopefully you’ve met up with Johnny in heaven and can talk about the good ‘ol days.
