I met Mr. Thompson at this years comic con and couldn’t have asked for a more friendly introduction. He took the time not only to sign and draw a picture for me, but also to speak to me for what seemed 10 minutes. A fan couldn’t ask for a more personal experience. My wishes for good health and many more years of creativity go out to the best cartoonist working today.
