Gary Groth's father has passed away

On Facebook, Gary Groth is reporting his father Howard Groth has passed away. For a long stretch, they lived outside DC in the suburbs. The elder Groth supported Gary's interest in comics, including helping him publish fanzines, which of course eventually led to Gary's role in co-founding Fantagraphics and publishing the Comics Journal with the late Kim Thompson.

ComicsDC sends its condolences to the Groth family.
