Joe Simon, the co-creator of Captain America and one of the comic-book industry's most revered writers, artists and editors, has died. His family said Thursday that the 98-year-old artist and writer died Wednesday night in New York City after a brief illness.
Simon, along with artist Jack Kirby, helped create several comic icons, including Captain America for Timely Comics, the predecessor of what is now Marvel.
