  1. Marvel vs. DC: Inside dope from the kings of comics

    Around this time last year during C2E2 — the busy, sprawling Chicago Comic & Entertainment Expo held each spring at McCormick Place — we spoke with the heads of DC Comics and Marvel Entertainment. We told them that, because we're curious, we would soon be bringing up an age-old question, a schoolyard tussle without a satisfactory answer.

  3. Between the Darkness and the Light: Brian Azzarello on writing for DC Comics

    If you only went by the type of comic-books he wrote, you would think that <strong>Brian Azzarello</strong> was a brooding soul, a tortured artist who was tormented by a traumatic past. But when you speak with the writer of dark titles like <strong>&ldquo;100 Bullets&rdquo;</strong> and<strong> &ldquo;Hellblazer&rdquo;,</strong> he sure doesn&rsquo;t come across that way. Ask him about the challenges of writing characters like <strong>The Watchmen</strong>&rsquo;s <strong>Rorshach</strong> or <strong>Wonder Woman</strong>, and Azzarello is thoughtful and easy to crack wise. It&rsquo;s not until you bring up the topic of his favorite baseball team - the <strong>Chicago Cubs</strong> - that the conversation gets gloomy. Well&hellip;not really.

  4. It's a nerd world

    Once a month, at Third Coast Comics in the Edgewater neighborhood, the store closes for the evening and the knitting comes out. Followed by the drinks. Drink &amp; Draw &amp; Knitting Night is the second Thursday of each month, as it has been since Terry Gant opened Third Coast nearly five years ago. When I asked who actually comes to this, he replied: &ldquo;Nerds, artists, fiber-arts folks, nerds &mdash; by and large, super-nerdy people show up for knitting nights at comic book shops.&rdquo;
