Dave Stevens, Rocketeer Creator dies

^Ghouldaddy:iconGhouldaddy: reports, March 12
It is with sadness that we announce the passing of one of the worlds best illustrators Dave Stevens due to complications from leukemia. Stevens, 53, is best known as the creator of The Rocketeer,his fabulous good girl Pin Up's such as Bettie Page and as a story board artist for Hannah Barbara working on such shows as Super Friends and Godzilla.

The creation of the 50's era hero the Rocketeer also helped spawn the resurgence of pin up queen Page as the main squeeze of the hero was based on Page. Long thought to be dead, Stevens discoverd that Page was in fact very much alive and was living close by. The two became close friends and while Stevens was not wealthy, he became her benefactor as well, putting her on the right path to get what she deserved from her image.

In the early 90's Disney brought the Rocketeer to the big screen in a movie adaptation staring Jennifer Connolly and Billy Campbell. The movie wasn't exactly a financial success and Steven retired the character.

In honor of Stevens legacy here are some of the best Rocketeer images on dA

... he was a profound storyteller and a brilliant draftsman... The Rocketeer was the very first graphic novel I ever bought when I was a mumbling punkrocker back in the 80's and decided to walk into a local comic book shop one day after payday... it still holds a high place in my collection, he brought back the notion of the serial as an artform on the heels of Indiana Jones... his work introduced me to a personality known as Bettie Page!

... clean fluid lines, unwasted space, artdeco splash pages that rivaled Will Eisner... there will never be another Dave Stevens and he will sorely be missed...
