I won't spend too much time eulogizing, but I will point you to this post pulling together thoughts from those working in comics, and this one from the AV Club which discusses Gene's career.
When I think of Gene, I think Marvel, which is funny because I know he did stuff all over the place. But he's in there with Buscema, Romita, etc.. one of the people who created modern comics.
We'll miss you, Mr. Colan.
Here's a link to Mr. Colan's official site.

I kinda knew this was coming as Gene hasn't been in good health for awhile. If you want to hear some absolutely amazing interviews with Gene Colan try:

Mr. Colan was a class act all the way and I became more of a fan of his after hearing him on these podcasts. He was really appreciative of the attention and loved his fans.
