?Comic Book Resources is reporting that Dwayne McDuffie has died. If you’re a comic fan, you know his name; even if you aren’t you know his work. McDuffie is the co-creator of Static Shock, was the story editor for Justice League Unlimited, and in charge of the JLU cartoon as much as Bruce Timm and Paul Dini were for B:TAS. McDuffie also co-founded Milestone Comics, a label designed to promote minorities in comics and the comic industry. Sadly, McDuffie also wrote the script for the All-Star Superman DVD movie, which comes out today.
