COMIC FOUNDRY IS COOLER THAN YOUR MOTHER

I picked up the premiere issue of Comic Foundry. Good Lord, this is a great magazine. Matt Fraction's "How to Make Love to Kieron Gillen" is about the funniest thing I've read. I'm especially fond of step 6: Working through the tears. Seriously, if this magazine can't survive in our industry, then our industry is doomed. Comic Foundry's two closest competitors, Wizard and The Comics Journal, aren't even hitting the same audience. This new magazine is for people who read and enjoy a wide range of comics and graphic novels -- not necessarily limited to the Marvel/DC elitists or the "high art" comic mavens. I've always been a big fan of Tim Leong (CF's editor-in-chief). This guy knows what he's doing. He's a bonafide comic book journalist. So congrats, Tim, I can't say enough about CF.
