RIP Kentaro Miura Creator of Berserk

This well known manga artist passed away this morning. He is the one who did the manga Berserk.
While I was not a fan of his works, I do appreciate all the work he put in to it as the title has been in print since 1989.

RIP Kentaro Miura Creator of Berserk

Sold 50 million copies over around 350 chapters and 40 volumes--this compares pretty well to any single comic book in the West.

It's sad that the culture of overwork in Japan ruins the health of so many creatives, and I'm sure it contributed to his early death. :(
