Rest In Peace - Joe Barbera
He lived a long, full life and with his creative/business partner Bill Hanna, left an unbelievable legacy. His passing is a huge loss, especially to those of us who grew up watching Hanna-Barbera cartoons. The Hanna-Barbera library continues to bring joy throughout the world. Today my favorites are the Flintstones, Tom & Jerry and The Jetsons, but as kid I loved Scooby-Doo, Super Friends, the Smurfs, Wacky Races and Yogi Bear just as much. Many of you would probably put Top Cat, Magilla Gorilla, Jonny Quest, Space Ghost, Herculoids, Quick Draw McGraw, The Banana Splits, Josie and the Pussycats, and any of about 50 others in the top category. He continues to be an inspiration to artists and I doubt if hip-hop artists ever stop writing songs about his shows. He will be missed.....
