Mike Wieringo was a huge inspiration and influence for me as an artist. His drawings were always light-hearted and fun, not to mention incredibly well drawn. As I've gotten older, and have not yet found my place in the comics industry, I could always remind myself that Mike didn't get there until he was in his thirties. He'll live on for all of his fans and friends in the wonderful worlds of Illustration he left behind. My prayers are with those who were closest to him. Sleep well, say hi to Will Eisner and I hope they have great comics in heaven.
In loving memory of Mike Wieringo
