    Punk Icon Jordan, Pamela Rooke, Has Passed Away

    Even if you don’t recognize Jordan’s name, you’ve seen her face.

    We are very sorry to share the news that legendary punk rock icon Jordan has passed away. Jordan, who’s legal name was Pamela Rooke, was the literal poster girl for much of the UK movement during the early days of the Sex Pistols. She worked closely with Vivienne Westwood and Malcolm McLaren, and was never far from where the action was.

    So sad to hear about Jordan. I was honoured to write the intro to Defying Gravity: she was a legend and an inspiration – the first Sex Pistol. Pics from Derek Jarman's 1977 photobook and with Neil Tennant from the BL May 2016 pic.twitter.com/Om2Fxf1HwO

    Rooke’s family confirmed her passing, after a battle with cancer. She was 66.

    Just this morning, the first trailer (teaser, really at only 30 seconds) for Danny Boyle‘s upcoming “Pistol” mini series for FX featuring “Game of Thrones” star Maisie Williams as Jordan was released.

She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), Bleeding Cool (where she was News Editor), and now Nerdbot as Editor-In-Chief. Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence. Though she be but little, she is fierce.
