    John Cassaday! NOOOOOOO! Astonishing X-Men with him and Whedon is one of my absolute favorite runs of the overall series of X-titles. Such awesome outfits and amazing art! Man now I'm even more depressed than I was about Jones yesterday.

    And RIP Peter Renaday. Splinter's wisdom will live on always. :rip

    I hope he didn't suffer. Rest in peace and may his loved ones find solace.

    – We've done nothing to you; release us from these bonds!
    – The bargain…
    – We struck no bargain!
    – No good changing the rules now. You must pay the price of failure, old sport

    I know this is a Transformers board, but I will always remember the impact he had on me as Master Splinter. He felt like the perfect balance of master and father. And Peter Renaday's voice helped define that.

    Rest well.

    Rest in peace. Fly high, my friend, fly high.
    Don’t forget the other deaths from earlier this year, like Don Perlin and Mark Bright…
