Today s Good News: Yesterday I got a mysterious package from Diamond in the mail that turned out to be a complimentary copy of The Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe Deluxe Edition Omnibus. I was the principal writer on that series, and it s so nice to know that my work lives on and to be reminded of the days when Marvel and DC both valued my services. Speaking of which, I wish DC would send me a copy of their recent Who s Who in the DC Universe omnibus, which I helped to research and write. But does DC even know how to find me? Should I get a reprint fee for this? (I recently got a tiny check from Disney/Marvel.) John Byrne did most of the covers for the Deluxe Handbook including the one used as the Omnibus cover This reminds me of the days long ago when I used to talk to John every week. But he drifted away, and I wish we were still friends.

A New Guide to the Black Comic Book Community By Calvin Reid |
Three comics industry veterans have joined together to produce
The Access Guide to the Black Comic Book Community 2020-2021. The title is the first in a series of reference works that will introduce creators of color who released books in 2020 as well as industry institutions and events that spotlight their works.
The reference work will be released on February 17 and all proceeds will be donated to the Dwayne McDuffie Foundation to be used to subsidize academic scholarships for diverse students. The foundation is named after the late McDuffie, an Eisner-award winning comics writer, animator and a cofounder of Milestone Media, a celebrated Black superhero publishing venture that focused on minority representation in comics.
