Ken Krueger, one of the co-founders of the San Diego Comic Con, has passed away. Between losing him and Shel Dorf just a few weeks ago, the reading of the list of people in the industry who have passed away that’s typically read by Maggie Thompson at the Eisner awards is going to be particularly melancholy last year.
Ken, I knew far better than Shel because of his involvement in comic distribution back when I was Marvel’s direct sales manager. He was a great guy, always professional, friendly, outgoing and helpful. I saw him at the last San Diego Con and he looked in very poor health, and I had a really bad feeling that we were going to lose him. He will be sorely missed.
