A few days ago, comicdom lost another artist.  Ernie Chan (formally known as Ernie Chua) was the regular inker on CONAN THE BARBARIAN during the '70s and '80s. Usually he inked the breakdowns and pencils of John Buscema during this time, but Ernie sometimes drew an issue or two himself. He also frequently contributed art and inks to THE SAVAGE SWORD OF CONAN.  Another of the Filipino artists working in comics in the 1970s, Ernie's work could be found in issues of  BATMAN, DETECTIVE COMICS, KULL THE CONQUEROR, THE INCREDIBLE HULK, HOUSE OF SECRETS and many other Marvel and DC books.

Rest In Peace, Ernie !
