    His work was part of my childhood, and fed into my adulthood (such as it is)

    RIP.

    A big contributor to my favourite season of the G1 toon (2), and as a TMNT fan it’s a double-whammy. :( 

    Sorry to see this news.

    Here is a link to a podcast interview with David Wise from 2015. It's been a while since I listened to it, but I remember he talks about his career and what it was like writing for animation in the '80s. (The link goes to a page of interviews with various people, scroll down to number 23 to get to David's.)

    So very sad to hear. I got to meet him at Botcon 2004 and listen to his wonderful stories about working in the industry. I loved his story about an episode of Batman the Animated Series that he wrote and was rejected because it was too dark.

    Thoughts and prayers go out to his family and loved ones.
