for Domino nerds out there: all the buttons (about us/store/news) and the main logo were all made by me with a letterpress, and are scans of the letterpress prints. So everything on the site, besides the actual text, are scans of handmade works of art.

Who are smartest comics people these days? The people with really interesting, even (especially!) convoluted, perspectives...I want to send out comps of new Josh Bayer book to the brightest comic thinking people, who are they? Who are your favorite comics writers who review what they're sent?

working a full time teaching schedule (around 3 classes a semester) as an adjunct prof (at schools that cost students $60k/year) pays $35k/year in NYC. Most anyone teaching at college level in city is working (possibly many) others jobs just to make ends meet and scrambling to class in spare time.

reading more about Steve Geppi): we are unalike in all ways.

If Steve Geppi did all of Diamond operations by himself, and didn't rely on predatory variant covers and have a death wish for comics as an art form, we'd be identical!

Comic book expert here, self-administered, owner-operator, repository of knowledge.
What? Artists? I don't think comics have those, sorry, or even IF they do, that's irrelevant.
