I'm a Sonic The Hedgehog fan. Who found out late, about a few months later. I always wonder but never knew who did the amazing artwork for the Sonic covers during the Genesis days. Your cover artwork have made a huge impact on gaming. Thanks alot Greg, for your iconic artwork. You did truly inspired me. You're my best influenced and I will remember you always from now on.

Your artwork was one of the reasons I got into video games in the first place, a gateway into a fantastic world I could escape into and forget all of my troubles. You changed my life in so many ways and I wish I'd had the chance to thank you for that in person. Hoping you are well wherever you are, and I thank you, not just for my adult self, but for my child self as well. RiP

I'm sorry we found out soo late about your passing, your contributions to the video game and cartoon community were a great legacy, I grew up with your art.

Its only now (January 2014) that your close and personal friends are telling us of your passing. I wish we only knew sooner.

Goodbye Mr. Martin, We won't ever forget you.
