Goodbye To Greg AKA @k4tzm4n

Remember those awesome Battle of the Weeks ? Remember the awesome stories on Indie Titles like TMNT and Valient? Well the source of those and more awesome post is now leaving Comic Vine (@k4tzm4n) and since it seems we are not getting a proper sendoff so I made this post so Viners who appreciated Greg's work and dedication can say their goodbyes and wish him the best.

As for me I will say it's sad to see you leave and I wish you the best in your future endeavors :). May you bring the passion you had for this site to whatever future project you will be doing :).

and don't forget to:

Just want to send you off with some awesome imagery :)

@allstarsuperman@madeinbangladesh@kilowog52@arturocalakayvee@mrshway88@maddpanda531

Aww well that smells. I always liked reading k4 stuff when I could

@darling_luna: Same

So long.

@jestersmiles:

Very bad news.

His battles of the week (and the CaVs) are what make me coming around regularly.

Best luck for your next venture.

He told me that he'll still be on the forums, just not as a staff member.

@xwraith: That cool but still I will miss his indie love stories :(. He and @allstarsuperman are the reason I reading and loving Unity.

@jestersmiles: I wouldn't have picked up TMNT, Lemire/Sorrentino Green Arrow, or anything Valiant if it weren't for his reviews.

@darling_luna:

Are you sure he's leaving? I know his contract expired with comicvine but I don't believe he said he was leaving....It does suck to see him not be a staff member though.

He always made the best articles, he was always tons of fun and very positive, and he was just a plain ol nice guy who I for one am going to miss.

Maybe I'll start following his blog

@44orhsaj: I know but his post where so awesome :(. Got me into the indie scene. sucks that he won't be writing more post.

@jestersmiles:

Now i want to post anime gifs.

:( ... The guy was probably the most awesome member of the CV staff

I see. I thought this was a goodbye thread since you thought he was leaving. In that case I agree I will miss his articles and I hope he finds work again soon.

@darling_luna:

WHY NOOOOOOOOO WHYYYYYYYYYYYYY

~MiB

@jestersmiles:

@impervious: he was easily the best staff, IMHO.

Is this seriously true? Say it ain't so, Gregg's been a huge highlight on CV's articles and news items. He really added something fresh, engaging and unique in his write ups, commentary and opinions. I was wondering where his articles were so this makes a lot of sense sadly. I'll miss his presence as a staff member, replacing him will genuinely be a tough gig.

Where is he going?

@jhazzroucher: He not leaving per se but he no longer a staff member :(.

Aw man, this is making me sad. ComicVine is going to be weird going forward. Just won't be the same without @k4tzm4n's articles. Thanks for all the great articles and for putting up with us for so long, man. You are one rad dude.

@darling_luna:

His articles were always my favourite, sad to see him go.

Knew this since last Tuesday when he didn't wrote Flash's last review. I really enjoyed his articles and they are one of reasons that I joined the Vine his Best Battles from the week were awesome and his Does Batman Always wins? articles were amazing (well all of his articles were amazing so it's not rare) and really funny. I always enjoyed reading his reviews specially the Arrow's and Flash's reviews. He will be missed (in the staff) luckly he is still around in the forums.

@inferiorego is probably crying into a pillow as we speak. Don't pick favorites!

Who said he's leaving?

@frozen: not much as leaving but he no longer a staff member.

That is much more than an opinion....it is a fact.....

@jestersmiles: Misleading title...

@frozen: yes and no.

Beat me to it.

It's a shame...

Loved his articles...

Good riddance.

@thehumanporch: ...really?

But Katz was the only one who wrote interesting articles... :(

I actually liked his "Best Stuff This Week" videos before they were turned into articles. Seemed like a cool guy. Never known him personally, but he's contributed in big ways, so it's sad to see him go. Hope he succeeds in whatever else he gets up to. The Living Lima Bean wishes you peace in your journey.

Sad to see him go felt like he was writing most of the articles and reviews.

I loved his articles.

Not crying at all. Everyone is entitled to have their favorite person on the site. Gregg is an awesome dude and I consider him to be a little brother, who is much taller than me.

That's really unfortunate, I loved his articles. Well, at least as others have said, he is sticking around as a form member. Which is still great since his cavs and contributions are top notch.

Goodbye.
