Top comic book runs (#5-#1)
5. Usagi Yojimbo – Stan Sakai
Like Jeff Smith, Wendy & Richard Pini, and Dave Sim, Stan Sakai made comics his way, telling stories about feudal Japan through the eyes of a ronin rabbit.

Top ten comic book runs (#10-#6)

Anyway, Antony Johnston (a British writer who has done work I've liked at Oni) and Filipino artist Wilson Tortosa are the team behind thi… Continue

The new animated Wonder Woman film on DVD is actually pretty great.

I've seen most of the Marvel and DC animated, made-for-DVD, films and this one, much to my surprise, is THE best one of the bunch. Gail Simone helped write it and a lot of the humor she brings to her comic writing i… Continue

- Well...I'm a doctor...but, alas, no Tardis. I do have a daughter named Rose, though. Luckily, we named her that before the new show started.

Okay, maybe not the whole universe — just the world of Wizard.
