Well, we knew that this was coming.

"Dilbert" cartoonist Scott Adams has died at the age of 68,
his former wife announced on his show Tuesday morning.

"He's not with us anymore," Shelly Miles told listeners.

Earlier this month, Adams shared a health update on his podcast
"Real Coffee with Scott Adams."

"I talked to my radiologist yesterday, and it's all bad news
-- the odds of me recovering are essentially zero," he said.
"I'll give you any updates if that changes, but it won't."

"So there's no chance that I'll get my feeling back in my legs,
and I've got some ongoing heart failure, which is making it
difficult to breathe sometimes during the day," the cartoonist
continued. "However, you should prepare yourself that January
will probably be a month of transition, one way or another."

Adams first announced his prostate cancer diagnosis on his show
in May, saying that he was in pain every day and had been using
a walker for months.

"If you're wondering if I'll get better, the answer is no, it
will only get worse," he said at the time. "There's only one
direction this goes."

Adams began writing and illustrating the Dilbert comic strip
in 1989. Hundreds of newspapers pulled Dilbert in early 2023,
after he made racially charged comments during his show.

He then launched a new, online subscription-based version called
"Dilbert Reborn," which he describes on his website as "uncensored
and spicier."

This is a developing story, more to come...
