First was longtime Batman artist Jim Aparo, who had worked on various Batman titles, starting with The Brave and the Bold, since the early 70s steadily throughout the 90s. He was the artist for one of the most famous Batman storylines in the past 25 years, "A Death in the Family," the storyline that featured the second Robin Jason Todd being murdered by the Joker, after readers voted to kill the character off in a phone poll.
The second pop culture death this week was that of James "Scotty" Doohan from the original Star Trek series and the first seven Star Trek movies, as well as a memorable guest spot on Star Trek: The Next Generation.
Rest in peace guys. Thanks for the good times.
