Seth Fisher passes away

Numerous people have written in to share the news that comic book artist Seth Fisher has passed away. A note was forwarded from a relative says:

Dear Friends of Seth,

I’ve just hung up the phone from talking with Vicki (Seth’s mother) in Japan. She is with family and friends at the wake. She was overwhelmed when I told her so many people are talking about him online, in blogs and forums. She thanks everyone for their thoughts and prayers. It seems Seth fell seven stories off the roof of a club in Osaka. The autopsy revealed massive internal bleeding and suggests that he died instantly.

The funeral in Japan is on Saturday. Condolences may be sent to Hisako (his wife) at:

Hisako Sugiyama
Miyoshi Building 3C
2-13-8 Matsubara
Naka-ku Nagoya-shi
Aichi-ken 460-0017
Japan

There will be a service at Sacred Heart in Coronado (San Diego) when his mother returns from Japan (at least a week from now). The church will have the details:

Sacred Heart Parish
655 C Avenue
Coronado, CA 92118
619-435-3167

    I just picked up the last book of the Big in Japan series two days ago and now Seth is gone.

    It’s so sad. He was amazingly gifted.

    Seth was a great big sweetheart. He contacted me out of the blue one day a few years back, and we had an email friendship going. It was my dream to visit him one day in Osaka. My heart goes out to his friends and family.

    Seth was one of my favorite current artist. I fell in love with his work when I picked up Willworld about 5 years ago. This is so sad…

    Oh no… it looks like his art gallery on his website is missing or was taken down. I hope it gets put back up. I never saw his work before this article and I liked what I saw a lot. I hope they didn’t take it down because of his death.

    I heard about a month ago about Seth’s passing. I went to high school with him and recently found his senior picture….a self portrait. He was always such an amazing artist and after looking at some of his artwork online….it is breathtaking.
