I'd like to see this, as well.  Diamond Galleries' "Scoop" pop-culture e-mailout did include a very nice tribute to Branca, with an accompanying picture of the artist, in its most recent issue.  It was written by Byron Erickson.

How about a "Best of Branca" graphic novel sort of thing?  For sure, there are more than a few candidate stories for reprinting, dating back to Gladstone I.  Given his excellence and influence, I'd say he deserves the compliment.
