Stu-Stu-Stu-Studio
How kick arse is this book? Dark Horse is releasing a coffee table volume called "The Artist Within," which has hundreds of pictures of comic book artists in their workspaces. I've seen projects like this on the web before, but the big difference here is that photog Greg Preston has been taking t

Use The Nunchuck, Luke
Brain... Just... Melted... Generally, I'm against the notion that Star Wars and Comic Books are the same type of news. I don't have a problem with someone coming dressed up as Princess Leia or Han Solo to a comic book convention, but when over 50% of the costumes are Star Wars related, I have to
