This morning, we ran a collection of recollections, memories, thoughts and images of the life of David Bowie, from people in and around the comic book industry.

It's been a very long day. Did you know that the appearance of Earthworm Jim was taken from David Bowie? That's just one of the more surreal things I learned today. Here's another look…

James Gunn: I usually find out about people dying on Twitter these days, as it's one of the first places I check on my phone when I wake up in the morning. It's only been about fifteen minutes or so since I learned of David Bowie's passing there, and I'm reeling. And horribly sad.

69 years old. Goddammit. I know we're supposed to be positive in situations like this, but that's just seems too young to me. F-cking cancer.

Just a very short while ago Kevin Feige and I were talking about a cameo role in Guardians Vol. 2, and he brought up Bowie's name. I told him nothing in the world would make me happier, but I heard from common friends he wasn't doing well. We heard back that he was okay and it could potentially happen. Who knows what that was about? But, for whatever reason, it made my Twitter revelation more of a surprise.

Tony Maakies: I heard about Bowie last night at a Golden Globes party for Transparent. News spread around the room pretty quickly. He was an androgyny hero, but even the toughest townies of my teenage life loved his tunes

Tomorrow though, I think things could get a lot nastier.
