Stevens' death?[edit]

Warren Ellis has posted that he's received an email which claims Stevens died yesterday. I can't find any "official" news about this, so I'm inclined not to amend the article straight away. --S. C. 18:10, 11 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

A separate report has come via The Beat. The necessary changes have been made. --S. C. 19:36, 11 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I updated the article making use of the material being made availible on the internet in recent days. There's still some formatting and tightening up to do.

"The Rocketeer", film[edit]

There is nothing but speculation by Dave Stevens that "The Rocketeer" did not do well at the box office because of it's release within a few days of "Terminator II". It is possible it did not do well for other reasons.

Stevens' Early Life[edit]

I was just noticed that a 1991 LA Times article about Stevens and the Rocketeer movie says that he grew up in Bell, CA. Tighelander (talk) 08:34, 1 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Rocketeer section[edit]

I'm currently working on an update to the Rocketeer page itself and I think this one might be next on my list, even if biography is not a strong point. While I get round to it can I ask exactly why a huge chunk of this article is about comics made after Stevens died that he wasn't actually involved with? BoomboxTestarossa (talk) 23:24, 19 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

In fact, fornicate it. The material's been chopped; I've got it on the clipboard for the Rocketeer article but all but a cursory mention to IDW continuing The Rocketeer after Stevens' death doesn't belong on this page. BoomboxTestarossa (talk) 23:27, 19 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
