    Yeah, Nightcrawler was his personal favorite character.  I remember his artwork on the New X-Men circa 1975 or so with issue #94 and Giant Size X-Men #1.  His artwork started the X-Men popularity.  He had a graphic novel called the Futurians.

    He will be missed.

    I actually have that. It's pretty cool.
