If you’ve checked out any of my articles for Geek Nerdery you’ve noted my fandom of WildStorm comics. There’s one fan out there, who is a bigger fan than me, that took it upon themselves to interview several former WildStorm Studio members to write a whole damn book! Said writer, Joseph Hedges, set up a … Continue reading Wild Times: An Oral History of WildStorm Studios →

They’re mostly small and fun stories, and they’re done by a variety of artists. I imagine one of … Continue reading Weathering WildStorm : Gen13 issues 1/2 and 0 →
In the ’90s it seemed like most big comic properties really wanted to keep the backstories of their newest characters as vague as possible. Examples: Wolverine and Cable.

Ok, let’s be serious for a minute, this book … Continue reading Weathering WildStorm : Voodoo / Zealot : Skin Trade →
For those just joining us, I decided to map out a chronology of the history of the WildStorm Universe. A “beloved” part of the Image Comics group in the early ’90s.

When the powers that be at Geek Nerdery asked me to write a little something for the site, they didn’t know that I’d been diligently hard at work mapping out the chronology of the WildStorm Comics Universe.
