Sad news indeed. My only run-in with Kraft was a negative one, but I've heard nothing but good about him otherwise. There is a lot of discussion about his passing in the RIP thread.

RIP, Kraft. Aside from many memories of his life and career, one of his standout contributions was adapting issues 2 - 5 of Marvel's Logan's Run comic. He really understood the characters and how to properly adapt a screenplay.

Also heavily involved in Marvel's forays into music-based comics, as a former music journalist. He wrote the Beatles and Sgt Pepper Super Specials.
Th whole "Who Remembers Scorpio" storyline is probably my favorite Defenders storyline, with the possible exception of the Guardians of the Galaxy run.

By the way, late last year the Comic Book Historians podcast posted a two-part interview with Kraft (just scroll down a bit in the feed to find it). It's definitely worth a listen.
