It is with great sadness that I have to share the passing of writer Lou Mougin. We shared a great fondness for the Mighty Crusaders. He wrote some wonderful indexes of their adventures under the pen name DarkMark. He also wrote some wonderful FanFiction for the Might Crusaders Network, with the Mighty Crusaders and Archie himself.
I had the pleasure of interviewing him as both himself and as DarkMark
When I launched G-Man Comics, Lou served as our script editor. Helping me transform from comic book journalist to comic book writer.
Lou made a great impact on my life and I will miss him.
