Acclaimed writer for the cult classic cartoon Thundercats, Stephen Perry, has gone missing and is feared dead as there have been some disturbing finds near the location he was last seen. Perry had been going through tough times battling cancer and being homeless, living in his van. He was depending on fans' charity support to help put a roof over his and his 5 year old son's heads, while medical bills piled up on him.

Two suspects (Perry's roommates and former felons) are currently in custody and may be charged with Perry's homicide if a body is positively identified. A severed arm was found near Perry's abandoned van in a motel parking lot, while more remains were found at a in a nearby gas station dumpster.
Perry's son is safe and sound with his mother as the story is still developing but it does not appear to end up with a good outcome.
Perry's most well known works were writing jobs for the TV shows Thundercats and Silverhawks as well as the comic books Timespirits and Psi-Force for Marvel. A point of interest - his Timespirits comic has a crazy similarity between a main character and the Na'vi from Avatar - check it out. The comic came out in 1984 as an 8 issue limited series. I'm a well known Avatard, but if you look into Timespirits which predates the film by over 2 decades - the images speak for themselves.
