Joe Sinnott

I met Mr. Sinnott at a comic book convention at The Coachman Hotel in White Plains, NY in the mid-1980s. I think I was 11. He was in attendance as a guest artist, taking requests to draw characters. I asked him to draw Wolverine (because, of course, 1980s -- EVERYONE Wolverine-obsessed). He said he didn't recognize the name. Maybe a joke...? Either way, he turned to a fellow artist who said it was the yellow guy in the X-Men. Mr. Sinnott nodded -- ah, right -- and set to drawing. When...

Thank you Mr. Joe Sinnott's for contribution as a comic artist to our fan-favorite comic books and movies on The Fantastic Four and many others. To the family, many, many friends, colleagues and fans of this wonderful man fine comfort with you during this difficult time in your lives. May you find comfort in your wealth of fond memories together. May Almighty God in the Heavens comfort your hearts with peace and loving kindness as you cope with this precious loss in your lives.

Joe was a wonderfully thoughtful man. He was willing to sign for fans up until shortly before his death. In my youth, he was always a con favorite until he stopped attending. He was from the old school. He was never prideful or boastful. He was from the greatest generation and Joe would sy he was just doing his job. But from the comic book greats from Jack Kirby to John Byrne.. nobody other than Stan left a more indelible mark on the Fantastic Four - simply put - he was the greatest inker on...

May God be with the family

Joe Sinnott was a gentleman and a gifted artist. His work will always be fondly remembered in the pop culture world. He was humble and kind and made everyone he met feel special. The comic art world lost a Real Hero and the world lost a very special soul.

I'm so sorry to hear this. May God pour his comfort upon the family.

Condolences to the family and friends of Mr. Joe Sinnott. May the God of creation comfort you during your time of grief (Genesis 1:1).
