A rather entertaining conversation appeared between Matt Fraction and Chip Zdarsky on the Milkfed Mailing List the other week that I've been encouraged to share. With Matt asking, you described KAPTARA before the launch as "a gay HE-MAN" which is literally my favorite piece of writing of the last calendar year where'd that come from? not the phrase,[...]

No reason other folk might not throw their hat into the ring. Such as Gary Whitta, writer of Book Of Eli, After Earth and Star Wars: Rogue One. PUT ME IN, COACH https://t.co/cCC3yFGiHL — Gary Whitta (@garywhitta) December 11, 2015 Or Chip Zdarsky, who is… Chip Zarsky. https://twitter.com/zdarsky/status/675136909987946496 While Unbeatable Squirrel Girl and Adventure Time comics writer Ryan North gets very specific. Here's[...]

When Chip Zdarsky won a Harvey Award at Baltimore Comic-Con, the Harvey Special Award for Humor for his work on Sex Criminals, he turned it down because it didn't recognise the work of the book's writer, Matt Fraction. Tomorrow's issue of Sex Criminals celebrates this award, and act, by taking Matt Fraction's name off the cover entirely. Don't[...]

The anarchism of Chip Zdarsky is alive and well in this panel. Chip starts at the beginning, talking how he liked comics and he liked to draw, but school ruined any hopes of making money doing it after getting a C- in art….he has since been back to that school to lecture about art. He joked about[...]

But now, it appears, it's in official continuity, if Howard The Duck writer Chip Zdarsky is to be believed.

Billed as "gay Saga" and boasting an outlandish setting and wild[...]
