I'm a library guy, though not an actual librarian, as I don't have the MLIS degree. I've read my fair share of comics over the years. Probably your fair share, too. I type about them (and other bits of pop cultural detritus) over at my blog, Trusty Plinko Stick.

I post frequently on the Comic Geek Speak forums as Library Boy. And like most of the rest of the free world, I'm also on MySpace.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say The Professor's Daughter will be the best comic I read all year. I realize it's only just April, but it set the bar that high. Good luck, everything else... you've got your work cut out for you!

Stuff I Like: Starman, Bone, Legion of Super-Heroes, The Spirit, Sandman, Nextwave, Uncle Scrooge, Peanuts, the original Captain Marvel, Scott Pilgrim, The Maze Agency, Optic Nerve, Invincible, Love and Rockets, Fantastic Four, Spider-Man, X-Men, Silver Age Marvel & DC, Tricked, Box Office Poison, All-Star Superman, Animal Man, Planetary, Demo, Agents of Atlas, Barnaby, Green Lantern Corps, the Marvel Adventures books, Buzzboy, Squarecat Comics, Tintin, Little Lulu, Nexus, New Frontier, Runaways, Tales from the Beanworld... oh, all kinds of stuff.

Creators I Think Bring (or Brought, as the Case May Be) the Goodness: Jack Kirby, Steve Ditko, Stan Lee, Charles Schulz, Brian K. Vaughn, Mark Waid, Mike Wieringo, Art Adams, Walter Simonson, Jaime Hernandez, Robert Kirkman, Ivan Brunetti, Adrian Tomine, Evan Dorkin, Sarah Dyer, Alex Robinson, Fred Hembeck, Jeff Parker, Warren Ellis, Grant Morrison, Brian Bolland, Chynna Clugston, John Byrne, both John Romitas, Carl Barks, Don Rosa, Herge, Crockett Johnson, Alan Moore, John Stanley, Brian Wood, James Robinson, Amanda Conner, Becky Cloonan, Steve Rude, Bob Oksner, Mike Parobeck, and a bunch more I'm sure I'm forgetting at the moment.
