Nick Bougas, a.k.a A. Wyatt Mann, the creator of the famous Happy Merchant meme, as well as dozens or hundreds of other comics that changed all of our lives, is terminally ill and going to leave us soon.
His biggest meme will echo through future centuries in history books and samizdat alike. You were a big influence on me, Nick. I appreciate you.
