| RIP Alex Toth (comic artist) I loved the Jonny Quest cartoons! RIP Alex. BURBANK, Calif. (AP) _ Alex Toth, a maverick comic artist who designed classic Hanna Barbera adventure cartoons such as "The Superfriends" and "Space Ghost," died May 27, his son Eric Toth said. He was 77. Eric Toth said the cause of death had not yet been determined, but his father had been in failing health for years. Before working in animation, Toth was a comic book artist, widely regarded as brilliant, who had some success but even more frustration. He rarely held on to an artist job for long because of a simple, subtle drawing style and a stubborn adherence to his artistic principles. And he preferred pirate tales and westerns over the more popular super hero comics. Toth was born in New York, where he lived and worked until settling in San Jose in the late 1950s. While living there he worked for Dell Comics on titles derived from television shows like "Sea Hunt" and "Zorro." That led to animation work in Southern California, where he moved in 1964. Drawing for Hanna Barbera in the 1960s and 1970s, Toth designed characters for adventure cartoons "Jonny Quest" and "The Herculoids" in addition to "The Superfriends" and "Space Ghost," and he achieved the wider recognition and commercial success that had eluded him. |
