Michael D Hamersky On Comics Mentions That...   Stan Goldberg Passes...

TODAY'S FEATURE IS BLOG #4014 -    I just read this morning that Stan Goldberg, who worked at Marvel, DC & Archie Comics, passed away last night.  He had a stroke about two weeks ago, and was 82 years old.

I remember meeting Stan at the 2003 San Diego Comic-Con International, when he was the subject of the Program titled: "Spotlight on Stan Goldberg".   He presented a lot of info on his early days, and what he had been doing up to his retirement.  I haven't uploaded the photos from the program to the special 2003 SDCC Photo Album as of yet, but when I do, that is where they will be.

I remember's Stan's works at Marvel in the early 1960s.  He would sign the comics as "Stan G.".  Yes, I did read several "Millie the Model" comics!  Stan left Marvel Comics in 1969, and went to DC Comics for about three years.  He then went to Archie Comics. 

For a list of his works in comics, I would suggest this link to the Grand Comics Database.

For a history on Stan's life, I would suggest reading the entry in the Wikipedia series.

Stan also had a web site, as seen at StanGoldberg.com

My condolences to his family on his passing.

Stan gave a lot of energy to the comics industry, and he will definitely be remembered for his fine work.
