Gary Gygax rolled his last dice
He who (co-)fathered Dungeons & Dragons and, I’d say, with it probably most of the entire roleplaying genre, died on Tuesday at the age of 69. Gary Gygax is survived by his wife Gail and six children.

Fun comic btw, especially in light of the recent 4th Ed D&D changes that have seeped through to the public.
