Editorial
By Don and Maggie Thompson
Sorry for those of you who have patiently sat through the following type of discus-
sion before. If you know the lesson already, you can go out for recess, once you know
you'll ace the test.
Every so often, we have to run through some of the basics for the newcomers and
those who were out with the flu when we went over them before.
We get 125-150 letters a week (more, when we're doing some special project
like fan awards or Superstars listings). This means:
(1) They aren 't all going to be printed.
(2) We aren't going to be able to send out personal replies. . January 1993: 326,950 words (average 65,390 words per issue)
(3) Those that are printed will be edited ..(Actually, we edit everything that goes in
CBG except the convention calendar - and that's edited, too, for that matter. Just
~~~ . April 1993: 374,775 words (average 74,955 words per issue)
A lot of those letters contain news - from vital matters that can change an
industry to matters that affect only one or two people. Some of the material has a
deadline for inclusion. This means:
(1) They aren't all going to be printed, though we will try.. We will try hardest to
squeeze in the time-sensitive ones.
(2) We will try our best to squeeze in as much as possible of the news we get.
(3) The news we print will be edited.
[A tip for free: Remember in school when the teacher said to date your letters and
your compositions and your tests? It's still a good idea to date communications you
send to someone else. There are lots of reasons, but we bet you can figure out some
of them yourself. You should also make sure your name is on your letter, not just on
the envelope, which is tossed upon opening.]
[Bonus tip: Allow for the time it takes to get something into print. Tod.fy we
received news about an event that will take plac~ in one week. It will take us five
days before the issue can go to the printer, it will take the printer a day to print it,
and the issue will go into the mail - guess when? Even a week's additional lead time
wouldn't really have been enough. Shop owners taking advantage of our free Now
Appearing service, this goes double. Don types those in ordinarily last thing in the
issue and lays them in immediately. But they can't be printed befm;e they're
received, and we won't run the listing if it will be too l_a te for anyone to see it before
the event.]
Some communications we never get. Aside from the usual vagaries of commu-
nications, an astounding number of people don't put our names (Don and Maggie
Thompson) on letters, pa9kages, and the like. About 350 P.eople work at Krause
Publications; there are several departments having to do with Comics Buyer's Guide;
a random piece of paper that looks like it might be, for example, an ad for a con, may
go to almost any of them. This goes quadruple for faxes. Some people have been
sending news releases, review copies, schedules of upcoming publications, etc. sim-
ply to Comics Buyer's Guide for years, as if it were but a single entity; sometimes we
actually get them. Not always.
[Another free tip: Be sure the date and your own name and fax - and phone -
number are on the fax you send, as well as the name of the person to whom you
intended the fax to go:]
Some communications we ignore. These include anonymous letters and "cute
game" communications. (We got a fax recently with some sort of trademark-looking
symbol on it and some sort of message like, "Want to know more? Call - " and then
a phone number. Games can be fun, but we don't have time to play them.)
[Additional tip: either do most people working in the field today.]
We maintain a rough calculation of our issue-by-issue word count throughout
the year.
February 1993: 258,225 words (average 64,556 words per issue)
March 1993: 315,650 words (average 78,913 words per issue)
May 1993: 328,150 words (a,verage 82,037 words per issue)
June 1993: 324,875 words (average 80,719 words per issue)
July 1993: 409,475 words (average 81,895 words per issue)
Augst 1993: 316,800 words (average 7?,200 words per issue)
Mind you, the "words" involve pictures, as well - counting-the space the pictures
occupy as the number of words it would take to fill that space. On the other hand,
pictures take an equivalent amount of time in almost every case. (Even in two full
pages of art Maggie still has to get to, there are some misspellings she's going to have
to correct by use of overlays - which will take as much time to do and have the art
department shoot as it would to type and edit something to fit the same space.)
For comparison's sake, we'll mention that 50,000 words is a fairly common length
for a novel. And if we were writing better than a novel a week, we wouldn't have to
deal with so many facts and proper nouns spelled correctly. .
. Bringing us to another point: We're human. We do make mistakes and we
sometimes fail to catch others. For example, one publisher apparently took it as a
deliberate, personal attack that a listing indicated that his product was in black and
white - when it was actually in color.
It was not an attack; it was not deliberate; it was an accident.
And, on the subject of being human, we also have lives. Not private lives (at least,
not lately), but lives. Since the first of May, Don has been working 100 hours per
week - about 40 on CBG and about 60 on various book projects. Maggie has been
devoting an enormous amount of time to helping whip the company's new computer
system into shape; she also spent about two weeks with strep throat.
Throughout June and July, Brent Frankenhoff worked full time typing in entries
for Comic Book Superstars; Julie Stuempfig worked full time on Comics Buyer's
Guide Price Guide and the forthcoming price guide to Marvel Comics. Maggie and
Don worked on both of those projects plus CBG; while Maggie was sick, Don turned
out some issues of CBG - rather large issues - single-handedly, except for
proofreading by Maggie.
With that work load, mistakes are bound to occur. Don't automatically take it per-
sonally when they do.

Jeff Smith takes home Eisner, lnkpot, and Russ Manning awards
The big winners at this year's will Eis-

component of the Information Age. Now card
collectors have four great new 36-card sets to
choose from, with full-colour images on the
fronts, and innovative and informative text on
the backs-and each set retails for just $9.95.
First up, Eclipse has created a special
Update Set of their popular FamousCnmic Book

in the expanding set to 146.
Included in the cello-pack. are such comic

Gammill, Bill Griffith, Harvey Kurtzman, John
Romita, Jr., Jim Valentino, Ron Lim, Alex

Woch, Bill Gaines, Paul Levitz, and Bruce Jones.
Each of the cards features a computer-

of the card (colour-enhanced by Julia Koch of

history of the creator's career highlights.

Cards in the set include idiom founders
Louis Jordan and Pvt. Cecil Gant; rock n' roll
cross-overs Chuck Berry, Fats Domino, Bo
Diddley, Sam-Cooke, and Little Richard; Johnny
Otis, who wrote the original "Hound Dog";
Hank Ballard, who originated The Twist; and
Huey "Piano" Smith of "The Popeye."

give America a glimpse of real superheroes
.whose courage under fire has inspired countless
films and novels. Eddie Rickenbacker, James
Doolittle, Audie Murphy, Pappy Boyington, and
many others were awarded this highest honor,
and their stories are now on trading cards to
thrill and inspire all Americans.
This beautiful 36-card boxed set, endorsed by
the Medal of Honor Society, is written by Kent
DeLong, the Society's medical consultant, with
action-packed images by ar.tist Tom Simonton.
Last in the pack is Clive Barker's Box of
Blood, which reconceptualizes Barker's seminal
short story "The Book of Blood" as a set of 32
trading cards, interpreted here in striking
paintings by Hellraiser artist, Tristan Schane.
In "The Book of Blood," we learn that in a
seemingly normal British townhouse lies an
incredible nexus to worlds unimagined. The
undead traverse their hellish highways to get
to 58 Tollington Place, where they write their
stories in "The Book of Blood."
In 32 cards, Clive Barker's &,:r of Blood gives
us the sometimes gruesome, sometimes erotic
images from thls extraordinary tale with the
complete text of Barker's short story on the
back of the cards.

and, thanks to the prior intercession of
Beau, found that we actually had hotel
rooms waiting for us at the lovely Horton
Grand, home of the famous LobbyFinches.
Next morning, accompanied. by the
folks from Milestone merchandising, who
sublet a partial table from us, the nine of us
set up our four-booth space and started in
on the sell-o-rama.

Claypool titles we distribute, plus new
Eclipse books like Miracleman #24 and True
Crime Special: Apocalypse at Waco, as well as
Larry Marder's Tales of the Beanwor]d also
sold rapidly. Of the new trading card
issues, it seemed to me that King Kong was
most in demand, and since that one is a
limited edition of only 1,000 cases with a
hot foiled and embossed chase card, it
seems assured of being a rapid sell-out.
Without Dean to help work the table, i
had to do double duty, so i pretty much left
the crew to run the retail store on their own
(which they did splendidly, with help from
Julia and Letitia, who showed up a bit later)
while i went to business meetings and
socialized with colleagues.
This convention was so crowded that it
scored a big fat zero on the Schwartz-O-
Meter (no kisses from Julie, and i never
even saw him there!), but there were some
great dinners (the one with Will and Ann
Eisner was especially enjoyable) and
several exciting developments on the
professional front.

At the first CBPA meeting (held on
Thursday) we elected an "ashcan" board of
directors to serve until we hold our first
general election. (Once the real board is
elected, we'll sell the ashcan directors to
Gary Colabuono for his ashcan collection.)
For the record, they are: Kurt Busiek,
Ashcan President; Peter David, Ashcan
Treasurer; and Catherine Yronwode (that's
me), Ashcan Secretary, plus Maggie
Thompson and Letitia Glozer, Shadow
Ashcan Secretraries Pro Tern . We also
formed a few ashcan committees to achieve
specific goals, such as generating papers of
incorporation (that's where the lawyers
came in) and originating an ashcan edition
of the CBPA newsletter (that's why we
needed three secretaries).
The ashcan committees met again
Sunday morning for breakfast, and a good
time was had by all, but a far, far better
time was had immediately after by the
three ashcan directors and David Seidman,
as we dragged the main in front of the
convention center in Peter David's hot little
red convetible, screaming, "WE CREATED
CABLE!!!!!" and laughing like maniacs.
Sunday also marked the first meeting of
The Friends of Lulu. This group of comic
book professionals is dedicated to the
notion of increasing comic book readership
among young girls, encouraging comics
retailers to maintain stores that are as
attractive to female customers as to ma.le
customers, and ensuring that women in the
industry are accorded the same respect and
benefits that men currently enjoy.
Finally, to top off an almost perfect
Sunday, we auctioned off Chris Yambar's
painting of George Reeves as Superman-
and the highest bidder was John Field,
George Reeves fan extraordinaire, who
walked off with the piece for $250.00.
Thanks again to Chris for the donation--

Among the big winners: King Kong and James
Bond Trading Cards were steady sellers; the new
1993 Eclipse Mail Order Catalogue was leaping
into the hands of eager collectors; the usual bevy
of Eclipse freebies including ultra-cool Oaypool
Fear City pins, were snatched up by Friday;
Sou/searchers and Company sold like hot cakes,
with additional copies of #1 and #2 airfreighted
in; all Miracleman comics and graphic albums
sold out; and the newest Tales of the Beanworld
(#20) was sold by the cartonful!
Special events included signings by David
Chelsea and Beau Smith, as well as a Milestone
contingent selling (and selling out of) Milestone
wear in vibrant colours on stark black.
If any \tern caused riots, however, it was the
Todd Mcfarlane Spawn SPOGZ, the roundly
collectible playing pieces that are sweeping the
nation. Beau Smith reports that nineteen cases
sold out by Sunday-and the SPOGZ are about
to hit comics shops nationwide!
"The trade show was the best in recent
memory," Smith notes, "and I had far more time
to talk with retailers about what works for them
at Eclipse-and what doesn't. You can bet that
some changes will be made because our motto at

and damed if it isn't "in darkest night"! My God
- they're serious about this!
Now, 1 can see how certain archaic turns of
phrase have the potential for offending African-
Americans - "a black-hearted villain," for exam-
ple - by associating the word black with a pejora-
tive phrase or clichc. But blackest night"? Late
news flash, folks: Take a look at the night sky - it
is black. And there is nothing pejorative about the
word "night" and certainly not in this context: It
simply says that neither light nor darkness will
cloak evil from Green Lantern's sight, right?
Aside from the fact that there's nearly 50 years
of history behind the old phrasing, the alliteration
gives it a nice little spin absent from the new,
"improved," PC version. I mean, c'mon guys -
rm as liberal as the next Hollywood screenwriter,
but does the word overreaction mean anything to
you?
By this logic, I assume DC will be changing the
name of its latest Vertigo heroine to "Dark
Orchid." (The same goes for Dinah Lance, a.k.a.
the Dark Canary.) And that Janos Prohaska will
hereafter be the leader of that legendary flying
team, the Darkhaw:ks. (for that matter, has any-
body broken the bad news to Bill Black?-)
I don't know who at DC came up with this bril-
liant idea, but' in earlier, more innocent times, I
might have insensitively described them as . .. oh,
l don't .know .. . stupid? Now - because 1, like
Hal Jordan, strive lo be politically correct - I'll

"differently intetlected."

Just a couple of quick thoughts. What
prompted me to write is a statement Don made in
his Comics Guide review of Wonder Woman #18
(CBG # 1032) regarding hemophilia. Don states
(with emphasis) that women do not get
hemophilia. The thr~e "No." statements caught
my eye. Unfortunately, this is just not true.
First, a bit of background. Hemophllia refers to
a collection of diseases involving disorders of
blood clotting (congenital coagulation disorders).
Oassic hemophilia (hemophilia A, a disorder of
clotting factor VIII) acx:ounts for more than 80%
of cases of hemophilia. The disorder is earned on
the X chromosome which means that heterozy-
gous females (those with only one of two X chro-
mosomes affected) are carriers who have a 50%
chance of passing the disease on to their sons and
have a 50% chance of their daughters become
carriers also. The affected sons are ,hemizygous
(having only one X chromosome, which is
affected) and they have classic hemophilia. In the
past when no therapy was available, these males
died prior to reaching an age allowing them to
father children. Today, however, an affected male
could father children with an unaffected but het-
erozygous female (hemophilia carrier) and have a
homozygous daughter (a female with both X
chromosomes affected), and she would have clas-
sic hemophilia.
It is not common - but not impossible,
especially not with the current state of medical
therapy. Also, there are other fonn of
hemophilia: 1) factor lX disease - Christmas dis-
ease, hemophilia B - which is-also X-lioked and
therefore the above argument applies; 2) factor
XI disease - hemophilia C - which is autosomal
dominant which means that both sexes are
affected equally; 3) Von Willebrand Disease,
which is also autosomal dominant. You get the
picture. The expression about there being no
absolutes in.the universe comes to mind.
As a plot device, however, I agree that this use
of hemophilia was weak.
The thing that makes hemophilia such a life-
threatening disease these days is not so much the
risk of bleeding but the risks associated with the
therapy. Specifically, patients with hemophilia are
treated with the missing coagulation factors puri-
fied from donor blood. It is the repeated manda-
tory exposure to blood products that place these
patients at an extreme health risk. Many patients
with hemophilia acquired HN and other blood
born viral illnesses prior to the availability of
blood testing for these diseases.
Other thoughts.
While the Dark Knight keeps getting darker
and darker, I have just one thought. Lighten up!
On a similar note, the return of Ace, the Bat
Hound, in cameo appearances in the batcave and
especially the non-Elseworlds return of the Bat
Mite was much appreciated.
Finally, as a pediatrician, I find my enjoyment

Jerry Bails
I'm sorry, but you are mistaken about
l!emophilia. There are women who have had this
hereditary disease. It is far less common in
women than men because it is a sex-linked disease
- i.e., the gene is carried on the X chromosome
on the end that has no match on the Y chromo-
some. Men, who carry an X and Y, can inherit the
disease from their mothers, since a woman sup-
plies the X chromosome for her son. The gene is
deleterious, but recessive, which means that with-
out a nonnal gene to mask its influence, it can be
deadly in the male of our species. While a woman,
who carries two X's, can inherit the gene from a
parent (either her father or her mother), she is
likely to inherit the nonnal allele from her other
parent and have normal blood-clotting capabili-
ties.
Still, it is possible, and presumably has hap-
pened more than once in inbred royal families,
that a woman inherited two copies of this harmful
gene. She would have hemophilia. There are
other similar sex-linked diseases that occur but
rarely in women. They have not been bred out by
natural selection, as you suggest, even when they

LETTERS Such knowledge is not sex-linked.

(From Page 10)
are lethal. The probabilities are simply low that a
woman will r.eceive two copies. of the same bad
allele.
Men with hemophilia have been known to sur-
vive to reproductive age. Today, it is common-
place, although the repeated injection of blood
products from-so many donors puts their immune
system at risk. While the experts now debate the
cause of AIDS, it is well-established that many
things place the human immune system at risk.
One of them is the injection of the blood factors
from hundreds of donors that hemophiliacs are
required to take.
A woman might also be a hemophiliac if she
received one gene for hemophilia from a parent,
and the second allele underwent mutation from
normal to "hemophiliac." There is a normal
mutation rate that accounts for the original
appearance of the harmful gene in the general
population. I presume that this process (muta-
tion) may account for the character in Wonder
Woman. Mutation is a bit overworked in the com-
ics, but it does happen. Most such mutant genes
are harmful, however, as in the case of
hemophilia.'
True, some women serve as carriers and
increase the longevity of the gene in the human
gene pool, but the same could be said of all of us
with respect to other diseases. On the average,
each of us probably carries about a half dozen or
more deleterious recessive genes that are masked
by a second "normal" gene. We should be careful
to point out that women are not the only ones
who harbor the source of deadly diseases that
they themselves are not victim to. We all have that
dubious distinction.
Your remark, "Ask any woman." was conde-
scending. There is no reason why a woman - any
more than a man - would understand the nature
and _frequency of a rare blood-clotting disorder.

[In your eagerness to nail Don for making what
you erroneously considered a condescending
remark, you managed to entirely miss the point.
There is a very good reason why a woman, more
than a man, would undmtand why a woman with
hemophilia would not survive beyond the beginning
of her child-bearing years. (Some thought Don said

which is not what he said at all; he said she would
not survive beyond the onset of her child-bearing
years, which is very differgnt.)
The suggestion of asking a woman was intended
to remind readers that any woman would know of
the experience adult women have every month that
would be fatal to a hemophiliac. Don 's atlempt to
be circumspect apparently confused some men. Our

Concerning your review of Roadways - Jeff
Lang is a great guy and he makes this really fan-
tastic salad with chicken and potatoes and other
interesting things in it (get yourself invited to din-
ner sometime) and he has five cute ferrets (you
should ask his opinion about that Malibu comic
book The Fe"et) and he did a great job writing
Roadways, and I don't just say that because he's a
friend or because I'm a sucker for Down-the-Rab-
bit-Hole stories.
However, he did not draw Roadways. Ted
Slampyak did.

Basically, UC defines comics as a "sequence of
pictorial images," a definition which, in short
order, is used to "exclude" single-panel cartoons
from the clubhouse. A single picture can't possi-
bly be a sequence, right? Well - wrong. While on
the surface, this argument seems perfectly reason-
able (especially for those of us who hate Family
Circus), down the road a ways, it veers the-Oiscus-
sion away from engaging a powerful aspect of the
medium on its appropriate level - namely, the
words.
Scott also proposes that what makes comics
work in their unique fashion is the concept of
"closure." To recap, this means that a reader, pre-
sented with two pictures in sequence, "fills in" the
missing information, creating a whole from the
parts. In UC, this magic consistently occurs
between panel and involves mostly images - but
there's another type of closure, an incredibly
0
important type, that I think slipped by.
To explain, I'll borrow an example from Eric
Berger's Ways of Seeing. Take a look at the pictiire
below:
Now, take a look again.
In typical comics fashion, the words have
altered the picture.
Maybe we can't say exactly how, but tlie house
no longer seems quite as innocent this time. The
reader has mixed the picture and the words in his
mind - and formed a whole. Not only tha~ bu~ if ,,
you take a look back at the original, wordless ver-
sion, chances are it won't seem quite as innocent
as it used to, either.
My point is simply this: Just as there is closure
going on between panels, there is closure going on
between the words and the pictures. We see the
picture, read the words, and put the two together
to form a coherent view. Granted, this is a highly
dramatized case, but even when we read those
Family Circuses (c'mon, I know some of you do!),
the same process is present. Our mind takes that
little bit of dialogue and makes it come out of the
picture's mouth. We translate it into sounds and
spoken speech. We bring it to life.
OK, so maybe I'm a writer and I've got my bia
ses, and Scott's an artist/writer and he's got his,
but I still think this type of closure hints at the
power of an often-ignored aspect of a media
that's traditionally considered primarily visual -
the writing. ~
Comics engage us through the pictures and the
words - and it is unique in the manner it does so.
Of course, it's possible to have silent comics but,
as UC points out in a series of black panels with
free-floating balloons, it's also possible to have
l)ictureless comics. It's also possible to have bril-
liant paintings without the color red and entire
novels without the letter "e." Such examples are
interesting for particular effects, but an examina:
tion of the entirety of the medium deserves its full
palette.
Therefore, I prefer to expand the notion of clo-
sure to include what goes on between the text and
the pictures and likewise expand the definition of
comics to include single-panel efforts.
There are a couple of other issues raised in the
book that I'd like to take up at some point, such as
the importance of content, the history of the
super-hero genre, and the fact that I don't neces-
sarily identify more 'readily with smiling circles
than I do with photographs, but I think I'll wait
and see how the response to this is. Ciao!

As David points out, in mos\ cases the writer
did have the initial spark of inspiration, but many
have voluntarily insisted on giving their initial art-
ist joint credit. John Ostrander's work with Tim
Truman on Grimjack, which he mentions in
#1022, is an example; a more famous one is Jerry
Siegel's continued insistence on listing Joe
Shuster as Superman's co-creator. Even when the
artist had the initial idea, as Jack Kirby did with
The Silver Surfer, Bob Kane did with Batman,
and Bob Montana apparently did with Archie, a
separate writer often contributed equally impor-

Stan Lee should be counted as co-creator of The
Silver Surfer, and similarly Bill Finger is definitely
the co-creator of Batman, although DC usbally
doesn't list him as such.

Interestingly, MacDonald's books also con-
veyed a very strong conservationist attitude. He
wrote some disturbing environmental novels,
such as A Flash of Green (1960), which preceded
Earth Day by 10 years, and Barrier Island (1986),
which was so close to the truth he was threatened
with a lawsuit. It was also, sadly, one of his last
novels.
After poring over a goodly number of the
Travis McGee novels and hunting down a few
dozen others, I realized that there would be no

MacDonald late in life, but, then,.detective stories

slip into as an old pair of sneakers. As I browse
through my own limited library, I find MacDon-

looked. I'm a little more optimistic these days,
looking forward to discovering even more. And
since there is no way to tell Mr. MacDonald how
cool his books are, I guess the.next best thing is to
tell everyone else.
[Most of MacDonald's 85 or so books are easy to
find, but you'll find a few of them tough to track
down. There is a movie novelization (I Could Go on
Singing), a true-crime book published only in hard-
cover as far as we know (No Deadly Drug),.and a
couple of paperback originals that MacDonald did
not like and refused to allow to be reprinted - all of
these are difficult to locate.

"It's probably the best story I've ever
had to work with, and I owe Frank that,"
Romita said. "I worked so hard and long
on this. From the first point I touched it
until I finished it, it was probably over
four years.
"It's essentially Daredevil: Year One.

"It takes place during the period of

includes Elektra, Stick, and The King-

The series was originally conceived as a
64-page graphic novel, but Miller had
enough material for 90 more pages as the
project developed. Romita said that his
artistic style changed during the length of
time it took to complete the project and
that the layout structure might seem a lit-
tle tighter in earlier pages because the
project was intended for a smaller page
volume at first.
~ . "We added things and mixed things up,
so it doesn't look like all one style in the
first half and all of another style in the ,
second half," Romita said. "Frank said,

Daredevil title when he began on the proj-

"provides a nice little trick" for the transi-
tion to the red one.
(Coincidentally, Daredevil is getting a
new costume in the current "Fall from
Grace" storyline by D.G. Chichester and
Scott McDaniel in the monthly Daredevil
comic book.) .
Romita returned to Uncanny X-Men
with #300, his first issue on the title since
#211.
"At first it was like taking a tricycle out
on the highway," Romita said. "It was
like, 'What am I doing out here?' And, to
be honest, 1 wasn't thrilled with the work I
did.
"But now I'm excited again and am
having fun with X-Men. I want to stay
until #400; I really want to make this a
regular, long-term gig."
Romita said he wants to create some
new villains for Uncanny X-Men writer
Scott Loodell to use.
"I went to the thesaurus and looked up
words like strength, armor, and power,"
Romita said. "I got about 60 names and
have been crossing out ones I don't want."
Romita is collaborating with Howard
Mackie again on Hearts of Darkness II, a
sequel to the bookshelf teaming of
Wolverine, Ghost Rider, and The Pun-
isher against Mephisto and his son, Black-
heart.
"I helped plot it. It's like a Steven Spiel-
berg movie, very visual," Romita said.
.
"Blackheart enlists the three guys to kill
Mephisto, and they succeed tpis time.
-- .
"He tells them he'll become a more
respectable leader of Hell and not take in
people who don't belong there. But he
becomes the exact thing they hate, and
they have to try to topple him all over
again."
Romita is also working on a Punisher
project with Chuck Dixon. He said it
involves The Punisher allowing himself to
be placed in an asylum to go after crimi-
nals feigning mental illness. Romita is
also interested in doing a project based on
the Shotgun character from Daredevil.
"I created the character and want to do
a whole serial," Romita said. "But I doq't
have the time just yet. I'm not complain-
ing, though. I'm really enjoying what I'm
currently working on."
Kitchen Sink Press has released more
information on Simon Bisley and Kevin

R. A. Jones on Protectors, the Genesis crossover, ancl natural light
. '
R. A. Jones is the creator/writer on
Malibu's Pwtectors series. His previous
credits include Scimidar, Dark Wolf, and
Pistolero, all for Malibu. In this interview,
he talks about the upcoming Genesis
Crossover which wiH combine The Pro-
tectors, Dinosaurs for Hire, and Ex-
Mutants into one universe. Genesis
begins in Ex-Mutants #11 and continues
through all three titles for the next two
months.
Shaun McLaughlin: First, tell us about
the Genesis crossover.
R. A. Jones: From the very beginning
on Protectors, we hoped that we could
expand outward from that book until we
had an entire shared universe, as has been
done in mainstream comics for many
years now. Until now, the only expansion
we've been able to do was in the form of
the various one-shots like The Fe"et and
Roland Mann's A"ow. With Genesis,
we're taking the first big step towards this
expansion. There's a prologue to it in Pro-
tectors # 12, and the story really begins in
Ex-Mutants #11. From that point the
story will cross over into Dinosaurs for
Hire and into the various Protectors spin-
offs that are running: The Fe"et, Grave-
stone, and Man of War. When it's all over
and the dust settles, the Ex-Mutants and
Dinosaurs for Hire will share the same
world with The Protectors: the Genesis
Universe.
McLaughlin: Why did you want to make
these changes?
Jones: I sat down and looked at what
the other publishers were doing. One of
the big things that struck me was the fact
that they have unified universes and that
whatever happens in one title affects what
happens in the other titles. I think that the
fans really, really like that about their
comics.
It gets to the point to where fans know
that we can do stories that crossovers and
have guest appearances.
McLaughlin: Did you see anything about
the concept of a comic-book universe that
you wanted to change when you got your
chance?
Jones: Quite honestly, no. The only
problem I see is that it gets complicated
with Sl!,CCess. The more books there are,
the harder it is to keep track of what
everyone else is doing on their books.
That's the kind of problem I'd be happy to
have.
McLaughlin: Is this going to be a good
point for readers to jump on?
Jones: Yes. It's a good exciting story. It
avoids one problem that crossover stories
sometimes have and that is that they
sometimes become overly complicated.
The plots become so dense that it's some-
times hard for a regular reader to keep
track of what's going on.
But here we have a fairly straightfor-
ward, linear kind of plot. And it's not a
long one, either: six parts altogether. It
only takes two months of your time. In
that length of time, though, you will have
been introduced to all the major charac-
ters in the Genesis universe. Specifically,
in The Protectors it sets the stage for a lot
of changes in that comic book and among
its characters. It's a really good place for
readers who maybe have heard good
things about the book to jump in. It's not
only a good, exciting action story in and of
itself, but it also serves as a launching pad
for things to come. I know that that's true
for Ex-Mutants and Dinosaurs for Hire, as
well.
McLaughlin: In Genesis you're bringing
together a lot of characters that have never
met before. What's that like?
In with the new
Jones: I think the main thing you have
to do is familiarize yourself with the char-
acters and their story. Especially the char-
acters. You have some fans who have
been reading one of the books, but not
the others. Hopefully, when an Ex-
Mutants fan reads The Protectors, he sees
the characters he's come to know.
McLaughlin: How do you like working
with the Ex-Mutants?
Jones: It was unusual. Doing Ex-
Mutants was a great learning experience
for me. There was a certain amount of
trepidation there, but at the same time I
was excited about it. I'm looking forward
to doing something with Dinosaurs for
Hire because I think it'd be fun to match<
them up with The Ferret. That's where it
plays to the little boy in you because you
get to play in sgmeone else's sandbox.
McLaughlin: You just mentioned The
Fe"et. How do you handle continuity
between The Protectors and the one-shots
and mini-series?
Jones: It varies depending on the needs
of the story. Some stories can stand on
their own; others you almost have to keep
a flow chart in your head. For instance, I
have to keep track of what's going on in
the Gravestone series so I don't violate
anything they're doing when I'm writing
The Protectors.
McLaughlin: Are there any new charac-
ters coming up?
Jones: Issue# 14 of The Protectors will
September 17, 1993 COMICS BUYER'S GUIDE # 1035
introduce a brand new character that will
have a major, major impact 6n the charac-
ters for some time to come. He will be the
catalyst for many changes. The member-
ship of The Protectors at the end of the
Genesis crossover will not be the same.
Some team members will be gone and
some new team members will take their
place. It'll also be an introduction to a
character Roland Mann created called
WidowMaker .whose only previous
appearance has been in an issue of Malibu
Sun (#24). The storyline also brings The
Arrow back into the story and he's proven
to be a popular character with the fans so
I'm sure they'll be happy to see him back.
McLaughlin: Do you have a favorite
character in The Protectors?
Jones: oh, sure. It probably won't sur-
prise anyone that The Ferret is probably
my favorite and the most fun. It'll proba-
bly surprise people to know that when I
began to write the book, I didn't expect to
like Man of War as much as I do.
- McLaughlin: Why do you think that is?
Jones: There's an interesting kind of
phenomenon in comics. Comics writers
have always been geared to American
society as a whole. In the '40s you had a
lot of patriotic characters. In the '50s and
the early '60s the Red Scare and anti-
Communist feelings carried over into
comics. In the '60s there was a more lib-
eral bent. But in the '80s, when society
went back to the right, comics creators
27
didn't go with them. I sometimes felt that
the patriotic characters were more of a
liberal's view of what a patriot was. When
I started working with Man Of War, I
made an effort not to do that. I felt he
would be more conservative than I am
and that's a great challenge as a writer.
Without intending to, I began to build
him up. He's very much the leader on the
.field.
All the female characters are fun, too.
I've always taken great pleasure in writing
the female characters. Stan Lee used to
make reference to stories writing them-
selves, and I never believed that. I can see
it happening now. I can see it happening
at the m0ment with Amazipg Man.
McLaughlin: What's the process when
you sit down to write a story?
Jones: I try to take into account read-
ers' tastes. With a super-hero book, I
think the readers expect a certain amount
of .action. I've made an effort to put in
more action and physical conflict. At the
same time, I think the heart of the stories
comes entirely from me. I think you have
to write a story that's of interest to you.
McLaughlin: What do you think makes
a good villain?
Jones: There'~ a saying that a man is
judged by the enemies he makes. I think it
varies with what you're shootin~ for in the
stofy. The most common type used to be
the villain who is really and truly evil. In
the '70s it wasn't enough to say that this
man wants to conquer the world becal,lse
he's evil. You had to explore his motiva-
tion. I think sometimes it's better to sim-
ply have a character who's essentially evil.
I think Extreme in Genesis is in that mold.
He destroys because he's evil andbecause
he can and because he enjoys it. Someone
like Wisecrack in The Protectors, his
actions aren't as motivated by sheer evil. I
think he has severe mental problems. He
would have a touch more sympathy, per-
haps. I think a lot of time and thought
have to go into the creation of villains.
They have to be at least as interesting as
your heroes.
McLaughlin: Anybody coming back to
the pages of The Protectors?
Jones: Well, the Great Question plays
no part in Genesis, but his influence will
be felt. I wouldn't be surprised to see Mr.
Monday or even Wisecrack making a
return. We'll be seeing old villains that
the fans have seen before and old villains
that the fans haven't seen before.
McLaughlin: How do you look at writ-
ing?
Jones: I always felt that one of the jobs
of a writer was to reach as many people as
he can with his words. I also feel that,
more than an artist, I am an entertainer.
Whenever I agree to write a book for a
publisher, they can be sure that they're
going to get the very best I can do. And
that holds true with Protectors.
McLaughlin: Do you plan very far
ahead?
Jones: Oh, sure. I think a writer has to.
There are many, many things that haven't
happened to The Protectors yet that were
planned from the first issue.
McLaughlin: What's the hardest part of
writing for you?
Jones: I found that I've got to see draw-
ings. I've got to pace the story. I sit down
and draw the book. It looks really cruddy
when you look at it; it's basically stick fig-
ures. I have noticed since I've been work-
ing on Protectors, though, that even that is
easier.

Charles Marshall talks about taking over 'Ex-Mutants'
Charles Marshall takes over the script-
ing on Ex-Mutants with issue #13. He had
a two-year stint on the Planet of the Apes
series. He also worked on Quantum Leap
for Innovation, The Fugitive for Caliber
Press, and the comic strip Batch.
Shaun Mi:Laughlin: How did you come
to Ex-Mu/ants?
Charles Marshall: The nifty thing
about being a comic-book writer is that all
kind of comic books wind up in your
mailbox for free. I got a note in a care
package from Malibu to keep an eye on
& -Mutants, that there might be some-
thing big coming up. I eventually got the
call: "Hey, you're the man!"
McLaughlin: There are big changes
coming with the Genesis crossover.
Marshall: I'm taking over right after
Genesis. I'll have an eight-page story in
Genesis #0, which is the big chase comic
book with the George Perez cover. I just
saw it today and it's terrific. Ex-Mutants
# 13 is my first issue.
McLaughJin: Now the Ex-Mutants will
be in the same universe with Protectors and
Dinosaurs f or Hire, right?
Marshall: Yep. Sluggtown has actually
shifted and it's replaced Los Angeles in
the Protectors' universe. I was talking to
R. A. Jones and Martin Powell and won-
dered what happened to Los Angeles. I
think th at's an interesting story in itself.
L:A. popped up in tbe old Ex-Mutants'
world during the shift. There's probably a
good story there. Or maybe they didn't
even notice.
McLaughlin: Why don 't you give us a
rundown on the changes in Er-Mutants?
Marshall: (Laughing.) It'd be easier to
go over what's not changing! Everybody's
getting super powers except for Dillon.
Some of The Protectors are going to be
jumping ship a11.d moving over to the Ex-
Mutants: Gravestone and Arc. We're
really excited about that. Conversely,
some of the Ex-Mutants will be jumping
over to Protectors. We're making kind of
a hero swap.
McLaughlin: What are the new names
and powers of the characters?
Marshall: You know, the hardest thing
these days, with the proliferation of the
new heroes, has been the naming of the
heroes. I cringe every time I pick up a
solicitation.
Anyway, the new characters: Bud is
going to be Thunderflash. He can control
fire but he can't generate it and he can fly.
Ackroyd is called Warrior. He's super-
strong, too strong for his own good. He
can't control his strength. Dillon becomes
JONES
(From Page 27)
McLaughlin: Do you have any quirks
when you sit down to work?
Jones: It should make no difference to
a writer, but I have to have natural light.
Also, I don't use a computer. I feel less
connected to the work. I always write my
first draft in longhand. And then I have to
type it. I usualJy wrjte three pages in long-
hand and then jump up and go to the
typewriter and type it in.
McLaughlin: What's in the future for R.
A . Jones?
Jones: Hopefully, bigger and better
things. One of the interesting things Pro-
tectors has taught me is that I'm ambi-
tious. The uccess I've had on this book
has made me hungry for more. Hopefully,
I'll find even more and bigger and better
ways to m~ke Protectors interesting.
Riding a r~ller coaster
"You know,-the hardest thing these days, with the prolifer-
ation of the new heroes, bas been the naming of the heroes. I
cringe every time I pick up a solicitation."
Access, a little later on, due to the story-
line. Shannon becomes Syphon. She's the
most powerful of the Ex-Mutants after
Genesis. She's an energy conduit, and
we're not sure bow powerful she is. That'll
be a big part of the storyline coming up.
Pencilsaur for hire
Leonard Kirk takes over 'Dinosaurs for Hire'
Leonard Kirk lives in St. Catherine,
Ontario. His previous credits include
Alien Nation: The Skin Trade and five pro-
jects for Revolutionary Comics. He took
over the pencils on Dinosaurs for Hire with
issue #6.
Shaun McLaughlin: What brought you
to Dinosaurs for Hire?
Leonard Kirk: Actually, t}le whole
thing started when I was still in university.
I had taken a couple of class trips to New
York and, while the other guys were run-
ning around to museums, I went to DC
Comics. I caught my first interview with
an editor (he was the only one there
because everyone else was on lunch
break). He encouraged me to submit to a
lot of independents. So th11t's what I did.
Three publishers responded, but Malibu
offered me work.
McLaughlin: Was that fresh out of the
university?
Kirk: Let's see, the samples I sent off to
Malibu were six or seven months after
graduation.
McLaughlin: What did you do to fill in?
Kirk: Mostly graphics jobs around
town. I did some designing of T-shirts,
menus, newspaper ads. I even designed a
maid cart for a vacuum parts company.
McLaughlin: A maid cart? Like for
hotels?
Kirk: Actually for a Molly Maids kind
of company.
McLaughlin: Do you like working in
comics better?
Kirk: Yeah. The graphics work I do
isn't that different. It's mostly illustration.
I'm probably going to have to give that up
around the end of the year because of the
time constraints.
McLaughlin: That's a nice position to be
in.
Kirk: I have to admit that! The past
month or two I've had to tum down a cou-
ple of offers simply because I just don't
have time. Fortunately, they didn't ,,ay
much, anyway.
McLaughlin: Who are influences on
your work? Whom do you admire?
Kirk: I'd have to say Dave Gibbons and
Adam Hu hes. Before that I was really
influenced by Paul Gulacy and pied my
hand at some ultra-realism kind of stuff
and found that it really wasn't for me.
I've tried to find kind of a blend -
something a bit more stylized, which is
kind of funny because that's the way Dave
Gibbons went. Probably my biggest early
influence was Jack Kirby. You give me the
name of any comic-book artist who says
he hasn't copied Jack Kirby's style at one
time or another, and I'll show you a liar.

own style until I started working for

ning through the story that'll culminate in

and felt he was an under-used character in
the Protector universe. I like the way he's
being used in more of a leadership role
instead of the loner type of situation.
And then Gravestone and Arc, whose McLaughlin: How are the Ex-Mutants

 19-part storylines. More than anything
else I wanted to create a book that's fun to
read. '
McLaughlin: Do you have a favoriJe
character?
Marshall: I really like Gravestone a lot.
I considered making him more of a focal
character than he was. He just seems to be
such a cool, mysterious character. That
part's the most fun to write. I like Bud.
Originally, he was going to The Protec-
tors, but I wanted someone with more of a
sense of humor in the book. No matter
what's going on, Bud has to crack a joke.
McLaughlin: What's it Like taking over
all these characters?
Marshall: It was unusual. To Roland
and Malibu's credit, I was really given
carte blanche. I just tried to stay true to
what I saw in the characters and make
them as strong and as believable as I
could.
McLaughlin: What made you want to
write comics?
Marshall: You pick them up and read
them as a kid and it gets to the point to
where you say, "Hey, I can do this!" You
find out that there are real people who do
this and then you meet some of those peo-
ple.
McLaughlin: Do you do this full-time?

WHIG
\ WAS?
By Don Thompson
I just flew back from San Diego and,
contrary to the hoary joke, it isn't my arms
that are tired. I spent 12 hours either sit-
ting in airports or sitting in airplanes
(two-and-one-half hour.s of that airplane
time was on the runway at O'Hare, wait-
ing for a line of severe thunderstorms to
tnove through).
So now I sit at a computer terminal in a
very hot room and write rev,iews. It's a full
life.
I think I'll start what will prc:>bably be a
short column (I'll make up. for.that when
and if I get a weekend free 5by discussing
comic books for and about conventions.
* San Diego Comic-Con Comics #2
(Dark Horse, free with membership) is a
sampler of ongoing and upcoming Dark
Horse offerings, starting with a Don Mar-
tin cover (one involving the ultimate
tongue sandwich).
John Byrne~offers a short sample of
Danger Unlimited, his next series for Dar~ '
Horse. From this sample, it looks like a
lot of fun. The super-team featured
therein seems somehow familiar, but I
suspect it's just that I am comfortable with
them and feel that I have known them for
three decades or so. , two comic books by Sergio, Mark, Tom,
Paul' Chadwick follows with "Steel
Rain;' a pro-ecology story featuring Con-
crete. The world could use a real Con-
Arthur Adams offers an incident in the
time-traveling adventures of Monkeyman
and O'Brien, which features an intelligent
ape and a beautiful blonde - but it's
nothing like Angel and the Ape. And the
art is outstanding, even for Art's art.
Frank Miller takes back his film noir art
style (which has been borrowed by several
artists recently) and revisits Sin City with sl
three-page vignette which wastes not a
line nor a word: It's a near-perfect short-
short story.
Geof Darrow presents a two-page
drawing with nearly 50 people, several
cars and buildings, a giant bomb, and a
robot. It's a sample of The Big Guy and
Rusty the Boy Robot, coming in 1994 from
Dark Horse, written by Frank Miller and
drawn by Geof Darrow. It promises to be
tb.e exact opposite of their previous colla-
boration on Hard Boiled. It looks to be
just as good but very different.
Don Martin also deals with time travel
in a two-pager, ,-Rick Geary offers an
unclassifiable bit of whimsy in his excruci-
atingly lovely retro-Victorian style, John
Byrne returns with the script for Hellboy
(World's Greatest Paranormal Investiga-
tor), which is drawn by Mike Mignola,
and Frank Miller and Dave Gibbons
reprise Martha Washington (from Give
Me Liberty).
All of these are top-notch. Since these
stories range from two to four' pages each,
they also prove that a writer with talent
can still protluce a good short comic-book
story. I had started to despair about that.
This comic book also offers pin-ups of
Madman by Mike Allred, Gothik by
James O'Barr, and Grendel by Matt Wag-
ner.
, This is an appealing anthology of
extremely promising features; I'll try to
find out if and how those of you who
didn't attend the San Diego Comic-Con
can get copies. In any case, be watching
next year for the features previewed -
th~y all look like winners.
* You shouldn't have too much trou-
ble obtaining a copy of The Mighty Magnor
(Malibu, $1.95), a delightful ongoing
parody of the comics industry by Sergio
Aragones with Mark Evanier (and with
coloring by Tom Luth and lettering b
Stan Sakai, the same crew who continue
to bring you Groo the Wanderer - I stress
this because some people have the notion
that Magnor is replacing Groo, which is
not the case). ~
While all three issues of Magner to date
have been delightful - it's great to get
and Stan every month - the issue which
is particularly apropos to this column is
#3, which takes place in part at an
unspecified comics convention (unspeci-
fied, but obviously the San Diego Comic:-
Con). There are many nice touches, light
satire, and the requisite caricatures of
Sergio, Mark, Tom; and Stan. It's a lot of
fun, as is the case with all issues of Mag-
nor.
* I have saved the best convention tie-
in comic book till last - and I am amazed
at which one it is: Lobo Convention Special
(DC, $1.75) with plot by Keith Giffen,
script by Alan Grant, and art by Kevin
(COMICS, Page 40)

Bill Ziegler dies; drew 'Mary Worth' strip

ByEdMcGeean
Bill Ziegler, 68, artist on the Mary
Worth comic strip from 1985 to 1991, died
Aug. 10. He was a long-time resident of
Santa Barbara, Calif. Ziegler lost his bat-
tle with pancreati& cancer which had been
diagnosed early in July. The same disease, .
in 1985, took the life of his friend and
former boss Ken Ernst, who preceded
him on the strip.
Ziegler was born in Portland, Ore., and
raised in Berkeley, Calif., where_his father
worked as a typesetter and later ran ran a
turkey ranch and walnut farm, editing a
small country newspaper in his spare
time.
He was wounded in Italy, where he
served with his older brotheI in World
War II while attached to the U.S. Army
infantry ski troops. He" was shipped back

which parodies four classic Golden Age
first issues and a m_ilestone issue of a Sil-
ver Age comic book.
There are some nice satiric touches
(the panel dealing with Impact Comics is
a favorite of mine), most of which are
deliveted with the delicate touch of a
sledge_hammer on an anvil. Even if you
dislike Lobo, as I do, check this out.
Based oo what I saw at the conven-
tion,-Lois and Clark; The New Adventures of
Superman is going to be this year's Bat-
man:_The Animated Series - a TV series
(this one is live-action) which puts the fun
back into comic books. The two best
scenes I saw involve a runaway bus and
Ma Kent making Clark's first costume.

he knew of any cartoonists- who needed
help, Ernst hired him as his assistant. He
drew and inked backgrounds, did the let-
tering, and colored the Sunday pages for
14 years over a 17-year span. Later, when
Ernst moved to Hope Ranch near Sanfa
Barbara, the Zieg(ers followed. That was
when Santa Barbara became the fictional
town of Santa Royale in the Mary Worth
- strip.
In 1970 Ziegler left Ernst and Mary
Worth to_ work in the comic-book field,
where he would be able to get more expe-
rience drawing people. Mark Evanier,
then an editor with Marvel Comics, gave -
him his start.
Ziegler thought thafhe had finally seen
the last of Mary Worth, except for follow-
ing her soap-opera adventures in newspa-
per comics pages. But in 1985 Ernst asked
him to rake over the primary art on the
strip, when be became too ill to continue
working on it. Ziegler agreed and moved
to Myrtle Point, Ore., for two months,
working under Ernst's direction on the
strip and living ih a trailer that Ernst used
as a studio. Before he died, Ernst asked
the syndicate to sign Ziegler \tO continue
the strip. This was before News America
Syndicate-was sold to King Features and
became North America Syndicate.

such topics as mep, dating, sexism~ over-

for adults with a sense of humor.

you) is a collection of con sketches by
William Stout. Prevfous volumes of Bill's
work sold at cons include Mickey al 60
(1988, a collection of gag strips about an
older, retired' Mouse) and, not surpris-
ingly, 50 Convention Sketches Volume One
(1_992). I don't know if either is still avail-
able, but you can get a free catalog of
Bill's work from the address given earlier
in this paragraph.
This is a beautifully reproduced collec-
tion of sketches, many done in the styles
of J. Allen St. John, Frank Frazetta, and
Roy G. Krenke!. Several subjects are
taken from the works of Edgar Rice Bur-
roughs, and there is a particularly fine set
of five illustrations for Rugyard Kipling's
The Jungle Book. These con sketches are
finished pieces of excellent art.
This is highly recommended, whatever
the price may be.

er: A eulogy
By Mark Evanier
Bill Ziegler, one of the great "_u nsung"
comic artists, passed away last night (Aug.
10] from pancreatic cancer. He had
Jrnown for some time that he was dying
but, thinking he had longer than he did,
had scheduled visits from many of his p~t
friends and co-workers in the coming
. weeks. I was supposed to see him tomor-
row.
- Bill was one of those "behind-the-
scenes" people who ghosted other -folks'
newspaper strips or worked on comics
without credits most of his life. His ghost-
ing dated back to work with Warren Tufts
on Casey Ruggles and Bill Woggon on Katy
Keene. He also ghosted the Mary. Worth
strip on and off, over a period of about 30
years, finally becoming the "official" Mary
Worth artist for the last few years befpre
he retired and passed the job on to Joe
Giella. Bill and his friends were overjoyecl
that he fina!ly got-a byline for his exquisite
work. . help another . artist - even a total
In comics; Bill worked mostly for West-
ern Publishing, and some of his w,ork is
often mistaken for that of his goo'd friend.
and neighbor, Dan Spiegle. Some of the
comic books are actually partly by Spiegle:
Up until the last decade or so of his life,
Bill kept up a running war with alcoholism
and, when he lost, Dan sometimes had to
step in and finish an assignment for him.
Among the many comics Bill drew (with-
out Spiegle's aid) were a number of Dis-
-. minute. It taught me how to stage the
Witch Mountain. He al!>O drew three
issues of the Addams Family comic book,
brilliantly cross-pollinating the style of the
Hanna-Barbera TV version with that of
Charles Addams himseJf: He drew one
Blackhawk back-up story for me and a
great number of "commercial" comics.
One of Bill's -masterpieces was a comic
book on the history of the Los Angeles
Dodgers that was sold at the stadium,
reportedly in numqers of several million
. over several years.
Bill gave up drinking (he told me) in
1976 after defaulting on an overseas
Korak comic book he was drawing for me.
Spiegle finished it-while Bill went thiough
withdrawal. When he returned to the
board, he never tQuched another drop of
liquor, nor did he ever miss another dead-
line. In fact, he became a tireless sup-
porter of other cartoonists with drinking
problems and would drop everything to
stranger to him - burdened with the
problem. In at least one case, Bill not only
talked a cartoonist through and out of a
drinking problem, he helped ghQst the
guy's work to get him back on schedule, as
well.
He was a wonMerful, kind man - and
probably the tallest person ever to work in
comics. Dan Spiegle, who went to
~hounaird Art School with Bill, said they
used to call him The Gentle Giant and
.characters and give them body English,
also how to get the facial expressions just
right. Without this painstaking attention
to the slightest details you lose the read-
ers' .interest and, once thathappens', they
may never return."
He also credited John Saunders, who
1:ook over the writing on the strip from his
late father Allen (a proponent of the 13-
week comic-strip story cycle), for teaching
him how to te11 stories; John's stories usu-
ally ran six months, making it harder for
newspapers to cancel the strip.
When professor Ian Cameron became
a recurring character in Mary Worth,
Ernst used Ziegler as the model, although
the tall, slim, and graciously unassuming
Ziegler was the exact opposite of his mor~
pompous comic-strip counterpart.
By 1990 the 14-and-16-hour days and
seven-day weeks had taken their toll, and
Ziegler decided he wanted to try. illustrat-
ing children's books and do other types of
art without having to live with the stress of
_daily deadlines. "It seems like I was
always 10 days behind deadline and on
the verge of being fired by the syndicate,"
he said.
- Ziegler agreed to stay on the strip until
the syndicate could find his replacement.

STAR SYSTEM EXCLUSIVE

90 COMICS BUYER'S GUIDE #1035 September 17, 1993
Medina Mailbag
Dear Tony: Ironically, your review of
my Fam,.boy Funnies comics appeared in a
column devoted to "clipping." Ironic,
because I, like you, am also a "clipper and
filer," a "cutter and p_a ster," and this fact
will bring us full circle in this letter of
thanks and appreciation.
Seventeen years ago, I was 10 years old,
living on a farm in Blopmfield, Neb.,
attending Mrs. Neuharth's fifth-grade
class, and buying comics from the Corner
Drug Store on Saturday trips to town with
Mom.
My dad was a math major in college
before he and Mom started farming.
Maybe that's where my sense of organiza-
tion came from; maybe it was just someth-
ing I naturally did and enjoyed. Around
this time, I began keeping a metal file box
full of "neat stuff." Among the folders of
things like "Star Trek stuff," "NASA
stuff," "stamp collecting stuff," there was
one, thicker than the others, called
"Favorite Comic Books." Most of these
comics had no cover and were pretty tat-
tered from multiple readings and being
stashed anywhere. and everywhere on the
farm. I remember the comics from this
folder clearly and still own a few of the
issues.
One of those "Favorite Comic Books"
was Marvel Comics' The Champions #6
written by this young Isabella writer. I
liked it for a couple of reasons. One was
The Angel's nomination of The Black
Widow to team leader status. I thought
(and still think'.) if was pretty cool to have
a "girl" in charge of a team, though I don't school for 10 years now and I find it to be an Englishman who assumed a French
know if I ever admitted it to my pals. The
other reason I liked it was because of
Rampage, the issue's villain. This was
probably one of my first experiences with
a bad guy who may not have been bad so
much as just a poor unlucky Joe at the
edge of despair. Now, looking at it almost . Wei~ maybe just a couple more ...
20 years later, I find new appreciation for
" the recession-born super-villain who
could be you!" Thankfully, work's not yet
that slow.
Which leads me to your review in CBG
# 1004 where you say my comics were
among the best you read in 1992.
I'll never doubt that you and .I still Jive
and work in a pretty special time ang
place when a kid can find awe and wonder
in a comic book a thousand miles from
nowhere, and grow up tp begin returning
the favor.
Thanks, Tony, 'not just for the kind
words and good review you gave Fanboy
Funnies, but for the words you've given so
much of your Ufe to - words that no
doubt continue to be stashed in "neat
stuff' files and lodged in your readers'
hearts. Heaven!
Richie Prosch, Laurens, S.C.

months trying to figure out how to print it column is Tony's Tips! You remember of clumsiness, burned down the house

explain what it is you do to Chet Krause,
don't you?
Don and Maggie Thompson, Iola, Wis.
Did you see Overstreet's Advanced Collec-
tor# 1, which only costs $9. 95 for 176 pages
of articles and pricing infonnation on com-
ics from the Golden and Silver Age? It's got
a great cover by Harvey Kurtzman and an
interview with the late genius, as well as a
host of other entertaining, informative fea-
tures. It's hard to .single out individual
pieces, but I got extremely warm fuzzies
from John A lbemaz's look at Secrets
Behind the Comics, a 1947 book by Stan
Lee, and Jeff Gelb's "The Second Banana
Syndrome, " which told the brief history of
Fiction House's Super-American. OAC is
going to be coming out quarterly, and I
would recommend it to any fan eager to
leam morp about the great comics of the
past.
And, hey, what did you think of the
advance preview of Alpha Productions' E-
Man #1 by Nicola Cuti and Joe Staton?
Chris Mills ofA lpha sent me a copy, ~nd I
have to say this comic is every bit as good as
dizing than usual. I give up. the original series. It may even be better. l
Unless you are a solitary creator, you
have no concept what a letter like this does

Cardinale - called by her late Pink
Panther co-star David Niven "Italy's hap-
piest invention since spaghetti" - has
nothing but praise for Benigni, virtually
unknown in the United States. Parade
quoted her as describing Sellers as "a
marvelous actor" and adding: " Roberto is
completely different. He's the best
comedy actor in Europe. I had to keep
from laughing during filming. He should
have no problem breaking into American
cinema."
Cardinale has a 14-year-old grandson,

McFarlane Productions Inc. Director of

The announcement came after some
comic-book price guides (the Comics

them) listed second printings for Spawn
#1.
Fitzgerald added that the only way
Spawn wouJd be reprinted woufd be in a
trade paperback, but no such decision has

-~obbsey Twins movie planned
By Jim Neal
Those teen-age detectives The Hardy
Boys have been the heroes of two TV
series, and Nancy Drew has been the sub-
ject of a series of movies and TV shows.
Even Bomba the Jungle Boy was the star
of a series of movies.
Tentatively scheduled to join them is
another group of kid book favorites -
The Bobbsey Twins.
It's taken nearly 90 years to make the
transition from the printed page to the
screen. The Bobbsey Twins book series
began in 1904.
In a copyrighted. story, BPI Communi-
cations news service said in July that a
writer was to be assigned to tum the
adventures of the twins - both sets of
them - into a screenplay. BPI did not
mention the would-be producers of the
project or whethe~ the project will be
aimed at movies or television.
The series of books is about two sets of
twins in one family. There are Bert and
Nan Bobbsey, the older kids, and Freddy
and Flossie, the younger ones. When the
book series, written under the name of
Laura Lee Hope, began in 1904, Bert and
Nan were 8 years old; Freddy and Flossie
were 4. Over the y~ars, they all aged about
two years. For the Hollywood project,
Bert and Nan probably will be about 12,
and the younger twins about 6 or 8.
The Bobbsey .Twins became the sub-

You Ready to Alternative Rock?"
satirizes the corporate "underground"
music and is .painted animation-style by

jects of more than 50 books, many of
which have been revised and updated.
More than 10 million copies of Bobbsey
Twins titles have been sold since 1904.
However, Laura Lee Hope never
existed, any more than Franklin W.
Dixon, whose name appears on the Hardy
Boys books, or Carolyn Keene, whose
name appears on the Nancy Drew books.
Or even Victor Appleton, credited with
the Tom Swift and Don Sturdy tales, or
Roy Rockwood of the Bomba stories, or
~hur W. Winfield of the Rover Boys
series.
In fact, one person created The Hardy
Boys, Nancy Drew, The Bobbsey Twins,
The Rover Boys, The X-Bar-X Boys, Tom
Swift, Don Sturdy, Bomba the Jungle
Boy, The Dana Girls, Baseball Joe, Dave
Dashaway, The Outdoor Girls, The Six
Little Bunkers, The Darewell Chums, and
dozens of other characters whose adven-
tures were read avidly by youngsters -
and many of which still are popular. ,.
The author's name was Edward Strate-
meyer, and" his bylines included Dixon,
Keane, Hope, and all the dozens of
others. All told, he was responsible for
more than 950 books over his lifetime.
Stratemeyer didn't write all of those
books - just some of them. He created
all the characters and the basic ideas for
the _b ooks._ But mostly he would simply
outlme a new adventure for Bomba, The
Hardy Boys, Nancy Drew, the Bobbseys,
or one of the other series and would tum
it over to one of his stable of writers. (One
of his writers was Howard R. Garis who
on his own, was the creator of Uncle Wig~
gily.)
His business became a sort of assembly
line production of kid books. These books
