Ever wondered who did the art work on all of those old Disney comics of the Beagle Boys, Junior Woodchucks and Daisy Duck? Said but true, we only find out when someone passes away.

Bob Gregory dies: One of the more prolific talents from the golden age of comic books, Bob Gregory, died last Friday, December 5, 2003 of pneumonia at the age of 82.

Robert P. Gregory was born in 1921 in Los Angeles, California. He was a graduate of Otis Art Institute. After completing his military service, he continued his career at North American Aviation as a technical illustrator and publications analyst. His second career, as a writer and artist for Western, publishers of Dell and Gold Key comics, began in 1958. A writer and penciller, he worked on Disney comics from 1959-1984, Hanna-Barbera comics in the 1960s, DePattie-Freleng comics in the 1970s and also Warner Brothers, MGM and Walter Lantz comics.
