Jose Delbo, Famed Transformers Comic Artist, has Passed Away

by william-james88 » Mon Feb 05, 2024 8:14 pm

Motto: "'till All Are One"

It is with great sorrow that we share with you the news of Jose Delbo's passing. He was an Argentinian comic artist and while he drew possibly every DC character of his era, he is best known for his work on Wonder Woman for DC Comics and The Transformers for Marvel Comics. He was 90 years old. We send our prayers to him and his family.

For those curious about his work on Transformers, Delbo worked on 25 issues of the original Marvel Transformers comic. Below you'll find a sampling of his cover work, some of these covers have become iconic over the years. Please share with us your favourite work of his, and let's all remember this amazingly talented man who provided us with such joy.

If you have any news, rumours, or hot new sightings to report which you feel should be front paged,

He was responsible for some of my favorite comic covers, G1 issue #48 being my all-time favorite from him, followed closely by #67. Rest In Peace.
