Question - 519

Who is being commemorated in these cartoons?

Answer: Gary Gygax, the guy behind Dungeons & Dragons and the father of role-playing games in general. Many understandably went for Ingmar Bergman. I had the comics tag as a disambiguating hint for that reason. In the future, be sure to check the question tags for occasional hints. Hari, Jaggi, Raghu, White Jack and Black Lagoon, Adi, tsp, nice try and Sreekanth got it. Well done.
