Hi guys, just a short Krisis in the Kremlin episode as the Signal pays tribute to the great Len Wein, sadly departed Sept 10 2017. Len was a giant of the comic book industry, the co-creator of Wolverine, NightCrawler, Storm and Colossus, amongst MANY others, an acclaimed writer on titles such as Swamp Thing and Spider-Man, an editor with acclaimed works such as Watchmen and Saga of the Swamp thing produced under his stewardship, and an all time beacon of good ideas and professionalism inside the industry. To say he will be sorely missed is an understatement. Here at the Signal we are heartbroken by Len’s passing but seek comfort and grace in the great work he left behind. Our thoughts are with his family and friends. RIP Len. Thank you for all the great work. xxx
