Aw jeez, Scheider and now Gerber? This is just the week where everything awesome about the 70s goes away, huh? I’m glad Curtis Mayfield has already gone.

I’ve only read a few things by Steve Gerber, sadly I was just starting to get into the man’s work. But it’s a damn shame. Anyway you shouldn’t be reading here about Gerber. My friend Plok has spent most of the time he’s been on the internet analyzing Gerber’s work. His “Seven Soldiers of Steve” project, written with Sean Kleefeld, Jim Roeg, Spot 1980, and RAB, takes a fairly comprehensive look at much of Gerber’s 70s Marvel output. Here are all 17 parts : I. II. III. IV. V. VI. VII. VIII. IX. X. XI. XII. XIII. XIV. XV. XVI. XVII.
