"Why should history be a mystery?" asks the character named 'Book' at one point in Craig Yoe's Ban This Book!: Starring Match and Book.  Yoe is well qualified to pose that question and others on the subject of the censorship of comics and books.  Although he is best known as a publisher of an impressive[...]

The Hip Knox story that Craig Yoe has chosen for inclusion in his Super Weird Heroes Volume 2 is one of my favorite weird tales in this book, but not just for the story itself.  Oh, the story is certainly quite weird, and the character is very weird indeed, but the thing that makes this[...]

Towards the end of the War, an outfit called the Bureau of Cartoons was formed to "direct the scattered cartoon power of the country". I mention the above because it came up in conversation with comics historian Craig Yoe, while he was pitching me a series of posts which will be a companion of sorts to his[...]

The exhibition is comprised of work from the collection of writer, editor, and cartoonist Craig Yoe of Yoe! Books, an imprint which is distributed by IDW.

Live from somewhere inside a decaying castle with angry hoards outside, flaming torches and pitchforks at the ready, the horror comic enthusiast, comic creator extraordinaire and editor of many historically important but maddeningly strange and artistically brilliant volumes of bone-chilling comics, Craig Yoe joins us here on Bleeding Cool especially for Halloween The massive line[...]

Craig Yoe is the Indiana Jones of comics history and archival work, and it turns out that just like Indy, he's been doing this ever since he was a young teen.  Also, like Indy, everything he discovers is meant to be delivered into the hands of the public where it can be justly appreciated and[...]

But I doubt anyone will wait that long to have a gander. The announcement is enough to make anyone's heart swell with hope for Valentine's Day after all, amid all the froo-froo you're probably surrounded by today.
