Often imitated but never equaled leader of the Horror/Science Fiction comics industry, Warren published Famous Monsters, Creepy, Eerie, Vampirella, and Blazing Combat for which he hired the finest illustration artists.
I knew Jim Warren in the seventies, when he was still publishing. I once saw him give a speech at York University in Toronto. It was fabulous. I deeply envy anyone who gets to see him at the Library.
