Longtime comic editor Dave Schreiner died last Thursday, August 28th, after a long battle with Crohn's Disease and cancer. He gave cartoonist Denis Kitchen his first paid work as an illustrator (at the UWM Post) and co-founded the underground weekly The Bugle with Kitchen and three others in 1970. He was Editor-in-Chief for Kitchen Sink Press from 1983-1993, where he edited such award-winning titles as Kings in Disguise (James Vance and Dan Burr), Xenozoic Tales (Mark Schultz), Hey Look (Harvey Kurtzman), and To the Heart of the Storm and Invisible People (Will Eisner). He also wrote the great introductions to KSP's Li'l Abner books (Al Capp) and ghosted a number of intros by industry names. He wrote Kitchen Sink Press: The First 25 Years in 1994. He continued to be Will Eisner's personal editor, working on his latest graphic novel until the day before he died. There will be a memorial service at the Warner Park Community Center in Madison, Wisconsin on Sunday, September 28th.
