That’s super-sad news! I’m not very familiar with her work, sadly. I should check her stuff out!

RIP!

And fuck cancer! Pancreatic cancer is awful.

Aline’s work is tremendously good. She was the best thing that ever happened to Crumb, too.

I love Aline’s comix. She was a titan.

Damn. Her work was great! I have just a bit of her work however a friend of mine has a bunch. In a gesture of respect I will read thru them soon.

Agreed. I learned of her work years ago via her appearances in Crumb’s (at a certain point, their work became intertwined, I especially enjoyed the strips where they’d each draw portions of the same panels with their styles melded together), and became a fan.

What a loss for everyone. Love that Bunch.
