COMIC BOOK CREATOR #23 showcases a remarkable and revealing interview with comics pioneer and the artist extraordinaire of ElfQuest, WENDY PINI, about her difficult early years and escape to a creative life through fantasy fiction, adventure cartoons, Marvel Comics, and dance. We discuss her years as the quintessential Red Sonja cosplayer and 40+ years of ElfQuest, one of the first creator-owned titles that ushered in the new age of alternative comics, and much more about her amazing career, in a jaw-droppingly candid Q+A. We also talk to RICHARD PINI, ElfQuest co-creator, about their nearly 48-year marriage and their even-older creative partnership! Delayed from last issue, we present the final segment of our interview with CRAIG YOE, as we visit his New York abode to talk about his work on The Muppets and friendship with legendary Jim Henson, his career-changing book, The Art of Mickey Mouse, and current Yoe Books imprint. We also talk with LARRY KOSTER, onetime Gil Kane boyhood friend and business partner, about publishing His Name Is... Savage and other adventures with the raconteur comic book artist. Plus Michael Aushenker chats with the great PABLO MARCOS about his awesome Marvel horror work and so much more! Oh, and not to forget the wonderful FRED HEMBECK to round things up for our Spring ish! Edited by Jon B. Cooke.
