Sadly, my worst fears were confirmed this week when i went looking to see why Snell hadn't updated his blog in over a month. When you type in somebody's name and Google suggests "Obituary" is never a good sign.
Brian Snell died of natural causes at the young age of 55 in the middle of last month. When i was trying to decide how to build a connection between my hermit cave and the outer world, it was Snell's blog that inspired me to start The Voice Of ODD! He was at it for a decade before i even started.
Now his voice has been silenced.
The Voice Of ODD! will be silent this weekend in his honor.
Instead, go read something on Slay, Monstrobot Of The Deep!
For example, see why i haven't written much on comic god-of-odd Bob Haney. (Snell's got 68 posts on the guy, so i was only able to get there first once) Browse the topics and you're sure to find something of interest. Snell left us with nearly a dozen years of entertaining comic blogging archived for our enjoyment and edification.
It wasn't nearly enough.
We'll miss you, Brian.
I'll be back in 3 days.
That's a shame. Must go and take a look.
