Challenge of the Super Friends

May 28, 2006: Cartoon Legend Alex Toth Dies

The Superman Homepage is sad to report that Alex Toth died yesterday morning at his drawing table. He was aged 78.

Superman fans will know Alex Toth as the artist responsible for the look of the "Challenge of the Super Friends" cartoons for Hanna-Barbera. You can find out more about Toth at TothFans.com.

Alex's son Eric left a message on the Alex Toth Forums confirming the news:

    Hello.
    I am Alex's oldest son Eric. I meant to be the one to let everyone know that my father did pass away this morning drawing/writing at his table. I do not have any further details other than I will forward an address for those interested in sending cards. We will arrange something appropriate at or around the convention this summer in San Diego. As John shared, all of your cards and letters of the recent past were very much appreciated by my father. Only in these last years did he begin to understand and accept the fact that his work had touched so many people's lives. In time, more information will follow.

    Thank you.
    Eric and family.

The Superman Homepage extends its sincerest condolences to the Toth family.
