This is truly tragic news.  The world has lost a legend.

I had the honor and pleasure of meeting with Hulk when I worked at DIC Entertainment and the studio was producing Hulk Hogan's Rock 'n' Wrestling -- an animated series in which the wrestlers did live action wraparounds.

Hulk was a true gentlemen and a joy to talk with.  He could tell great stories and he had a way of graciously turning the conversation around so you ended up talking about yourself.  He was fascinated about my being a writer and told me I was fortunate to write for children.  It was apparent that he loved children.

So sad.  RIP, Hulkster...
