Wein was the mind behind several of the most beloved franchises, from co-creating Swamp Thing and Wolverine, editing Watchmen, guest writing X-Men, Teen Titans, Man Thing, and creating Batman's Lucius Fox. Not as known, but still significant, he scripted a number of Transformers episodes across the decades from G1 "Webworld", to Beast Wars "Tangled Web" and Beast Machines "Savage Noble", plus the most recent Robots in Disguise series' "Cover Me".
The staff at Seibertron.com send their condolences and thoughts to Wein's family and loved ones.
