About Me

A web developer by trade, my family of four live in rural West Virginia.

I've been a comics fan since age seven or so, when I was introduced to the likes of the Hulk, Spider-Man and Green Lantern. Been in and out of the hobby since, having been in again since 2005 or so, after a sabbatical of nearly a decade.

I operate a number of graphic novel and trade paperback related web sites. Check 'em out.

The Graphic Novel Archive

A ginormous bibliographical index of over 10,000+ graphic novel editions.

The GNA understands your fickleness. If you're a manga fan, you may not appreciate American and European comics. Or vice versa. So the GNA let's you set your preference and ignore the stuff you're not into. Cool, eh?

Thousands of graphic novel review and preview links, so if you're looking for another opinion (re-view), or looking to create an opinion of your own (pre-view), the GNA has got ya covered.

A massive release schedule, shipping updates, and the latest solicitations.

Wanna track your graphic novel collection? Done. What about building a graphic novel wish list? Done. It's called MyGNA.

Do you like graphic novels? No, I mean, really like them? Because the GNA is always looking for contributing editors who can lend a helping hand in building the Internet's best, biggest, most comprehensive graphic novel resource on the 'net. Anyone can contribute, and you'll earn points. Everyone loves points. Points can lead to prizes. Everyone really loves prizes.

Plus blog, discussion forums, and more.

That's the Graphic Novel Archive in a nutshell, folks. Well worth the visit, especially if you think comics with a spine are cool.

I completely agree. I don't get enough time to go to comic shops every month, so a complete story via a graphic novrl is the way to go for me. I got fed up having issues 1, 2 and 4 of so many series, and never getting hold of issue 3. AAAARGH!

Merry X-Mas from the Illustrator's Lounge by the way!

I have a number of comic runs where I'm missing an issue or two - yeah, definitely a buzz-kill. Though, I find I have some missing volumes in my graphic novel series as well. It never ends.

And hey, a merry belated Christmas. VERY belated. :)

Thanks! Yeah, graphic novels make up most of my comic collecting anymore. Besides, it's much easier pulling something off a bookshelf than digging thru many a comic box. :-)

Thanks Chris. I have to say, your podcast inspires me to keep working on the GNA from week to week.

Folks, if you haven't already, give Chris' Collected Comics Library blog and podcast a look!

Wow, excellent site sir! That's going to be a great resource to have.

[ Posted by HeidiMeeley on Dec 14th, 2006 9:50 PM ]...

Wow! Your site is excellent! Thank you for pointing me the way!

I will be back on a regular basis, for sure!

Dude, I have to send the kudos back your way! Your site kicks A$$ too! I love ComicSpace because it really is brining all of us together to find great sites that we might never have found!

[ Posted by SecondAct on Dec 13th, 2006 9:01 PM ]...

Thanks for the add.... went to GNA, what an awesome resource! I owned a comic shop for 12 years and when I gave it up I also gave up buying the monthly periodicals but have tried to keep up through the trades. Now I am finding resources like yours that help me figure out what to buy and what order to read them in. Thanks for the hard work!

[ Posted by starscreams_ghost on Dec 13th, 2006 3:31 PM ]...

Yeah, I'm a huge fan. I drive people nuts at the video store I work at because it's all I watch the whole time I'm there.
