John Carbonaro passes away at the age of 58
We've just received word that John Carbonaro passed away on February 25th at the age of 58.
John was a hard-core comic fan who acquired the rights to the T.H.U.N.D.E.R. Agents comic in 1981, which had been published in the sixties by Tower Comics. Robert J. Sodaro wrote up a long history of John and his time with the Agents in this article and only hints at some of the convoluted publishing history and legal messes (any series that shows up in both Thunder Bunny and Penthouse Comix has a weird publishing backstory.)
i only met John a few times, but he will be remembered.
T.H.U.N.D.E.R. Agents is one of those things I know best from finding beat-up copies of the Tower Comics at flea markets and the like. I always liked that they showed that having powers can have consequences; like in the case of Lightning.
I have bought most of the DC Archives and enjoyed them, though the writing can be very 1960's.
Be at peace Mr Carbonaro
