John Ostrander from "another life time ago"

I found this early photo of the man John Suicide Squad Ostrander on his Facebook page. As far as how old he was in this photo he just describes it as being another life time ago. Unfortunately his Suicide Squad feels like it was from another life time ago too.
It's ironic that I miss the Rom spaceknight character because he can't be published by Marvel for legal reasons but at the same time Ostrander's Suicide Squad (which is the real one!) feels every bit as much out of reach as far as ever reading again as newly published work I'd be happy to purchase. It should also be noted that I think Greg Rucka could probably do a rebooted Suicide Squad justice as well. Maybe even Gail Simone for that matter. By the way speaking of Rucka I just found according to his Wikipedia page he was born in San Francisco which is just across the Bay from me. You can fined him on Facebook as well just in case you were wondering.
