Jean Wacquet, editor-in-chief of French comics publisher Soleil, has informed Newsarama.com that artist/colorist Stéphane Peru, best known for his work as a colorist on Marvel’s Ultimate X-Men, Incredible Hercules, Annihilation: Conquest and Annihilation: Conquest – Quasar, Avengers: The Initiative, Civil War: X-Men, and DC’s Teen Titans: Year One, 52, The Flash: The Fastest Man Alive and All Flash, has passed away on Monday, February 11th. His work will also be seen in several upcoming projects such as the just-announced The Invincible Iron Man and Young X-Men. He was only 26.

I didn't see a thread on it, so here ya go. Dang, I'm 26.. I guess that means I'm not so invincible, huh.

Sad news, ya'll.

    Aw man, looking through his list of credits now and realizing that I really enjoyed his work, while not even knowing his name, is kind of sad. Everyone always pays so much attention to the penciller and writer on a comic, but a dude like this who kind of quietly works in the background tends to get overlooked.

    Between Seth Fisher, Gerber, Wieringo, and now Peru, the comic industry has lost some talented guys recently.

    Wait... this guy coloured Teen Titans Year 1? Is it the same person who coloured issue #2?

    ...because, seriously - I was just talking to someone yesterday about how beautiful the colouring in that entire issue was.
