    He was quite the character, and will be sorely missed.

    The movie about him (starring Paul Giamatti) is pretty good.

    The 2003 movie of "American Splendor" ties with the "The Dark Knight" as the best comic book superhero movie of the last decade. Period.

    Superman, Batman, and Harvey Pekar are my three favorite comic book superheroes of all time. RIP, Mr. Pekar. :salute:
