Nice photos!

I'm a big Chester Brown fan. When I went to college in the late 90's it seems like there was a huge explosion of Fantagraphics/DQ artists. Chris Ware, Dan Clowes, Dave Cooper, Charles Burns, Jim Woodring, Ivan Brunetti, etc. At the time I totally abandoned superhero comics and it was these artists that inspired and shaped my own art*. The output of some of these cartoonists has slowed to a trickle. I understand, producing comics is a huge undertaking. So in the meantime I rediscovered my love for superhero comics, something I'd written off as I became one of those snobbish art-comics people. Now I'd say my love for everything comics is about equal and it feels great! This site does cater to the mainstream but the posters here have a wide variety of taste and more importantly aren't knuckleheads fanboys or stuck up art-f@gs. Even tho Marvel gets more of my money these days I still think Fanta and DQ are publishing the best work in the meduim.
