RIP Rory Root

[opcoded]

Rory Root, the owner of Comic Relief in Berkley, California passed away a little while ago. I'm still having difficulty processing this because this man set an example of how comics shop owners should treat their customers. He was always doing everything he could to look out for the little guy, and nobody ever had a bad word to say about him. I never got a chance to meet him, but every interaction I had with him online, from the days of the Warren Ellis forum to The Engine, he was always great to talk to. He's definitely someone whose name I'll miss seeing around online.

Rest in peace, sir. You will most definitely be missed.
