Bryan Talbot, who began his career in illustration in 1969, has long been an innovator in the comics industry. While a complete list of his innovations is virtually endless, these works of note began in 1978 when he created the groundbreaking epic, The Adventures of Luther Arkwright (published in the U.S. by Dark Horse Comics in the early \'90s), w Read More...

Spümco, Inc. is the brainchild of John Kricfalusi and his long-time partner Jim Smith. The two animators met when they worked together on the Harlem Shuffle video for the Rolling Stones in 1986. From there they moved on to The New Adventures of Mighty Mouse and the revival of the cartoon classic Beany & Cecil before they co-founded Spümco in 1990. Read More...

When I was first assigned this interview with Alan Grant to talk about the new Terminator series he\'s writing, I found the prospect of talking to him pretty exciting -- not only because of his work on the upcoming Terminator Special (and the four-part Terminator series that follows), but also because he\'s one of the comics industry\'s busiest guy Read More...

In April, Dark Horse begins publishing an all-new original series by renowned British comics creator Bryan Talbot. In the past, the publisher has been fortunate enough to work with Talbot in publishing The Adventures of Luther Arkwright as both a nine-issue comics series and an epic trade paperback. Dark Horse was also home to Tale of One Bad Rat - Read More...

Over the last ten or so years, Dark Horse has earned the reputation of producing the best comic books based on licensed properties. Almost everybody knows about Dark Horse\'s adaptations of Star Wars, Aliens, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer (to name a few of the many hot properties the comany works with), and in June, the publisher is bringing Disney\ Read More...

Mike Mignola\'s got a new Hellboy miniseries starting this August. It\'s a two-issue story that draws its influence, in part, from an old folk tale about Saint Dunstan and how he captured the Devil by the nose with a pair of metal tongs, and it\'s a great, fun read. I recently had the pleasure of talking about Box Full of Evil (that\'s what the se Read More...

At this point in the summer, it\'s probably fair to say there are a lot of people with Star Wars on the brain, thanks to the long-anticipated arrival of Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace to movie theaters. But many people might be surprised to learn there\'s a lot more than Podracing going on in the Star Wars universe right now. In fact, Dar Read More...

It\'s been a year since I first had the pleasure of speaking with Mark Hamill and Eric Johnson about their groundbreaking project for Dark Horse, The Black Pearl. Despite the fact that they\'ve long since finished their comic-book script (the 5th issue has recently shipped, as I write this), the two writers have kept quite busy. In addition to the Read More...

I came into the world on February 17, 1970. Born in Chiba prefecture (near Tokyo), never married. The reason I don\'t appear in public is that I believe there\'s no reason for readers to know that much about the cartoonist. What matters is the art. As for hobbies, I don\'t really have one. But...I have been drawing some erotic pictures of women, al Read More...
