Hi, all,
Dave Cockrum, creator and artist of the New X-Men (Storm and Nightcrawler’s
creator) has been taken out of the extended care section of the V.A. hospital and put back in the medical center part due to the return of his pneumonia, but is recovering. It's not as bad a bout as what put him in the hospital in the first place, but it is still a turn for the worse. And they were just talking about maybe sending him home! He and Paty still think he'll be home in time to get to the Atlanta Con in mid-April.

Visitors and cards can be sent to:

Dave Cockrum
Bronx Veteran Affairs Medical Center
Floor 7C, Room 1D,
130 W. Kingsbridge Road,
Bronx, NY 10468.

Visiting hours are 10 AM to 8 PM.

The hospital's phone number is 1-718-584-9000;
Dave new number at hospital - 1-718-741-4535
Visiting hours are 10 AM – 8 PM

Locals: We took the 4 train to Kingsbridge Road, walked West past the armory several blocks, and entered at the left at the parking lot on Webb Ave. For you car drivers, the VA hospital is not too far north of Yankee Stadium and not very far east of the Hudson River. It's a big complex that shows up on many maps.

Yeah. Doesn't sound good at all. We're very fortunate he's still with us.

Hope he feels up to stopping by here soon! [Smile]

I just found out that the latest issue of Wizard has an article on Mr. C. Did anyone here catch it? Is it worth picking up?
