Chris Eckert
Chris Eckert lives in Brooklyn and was literally given comics to teethe on in his crib. This explains so much, and not just about his teeth. Sadly, Lester took the tooth.
Brian Hibbs
Brian Hibbs has owned and operated the comic store Comix Experience in San Francisco since April Fool's Day, 1989. He is the author of Tilting at Windmills (originally serialized in Comics Retailer magazine) from IDW Publishing in two volumes. An index of Tilting at Windmills version 1 can be found here, version 2.0 can be found right here, while his current run (3.0) at Comic Book Resources can be found here. Brian lives in San Francisco with his lovely wife Tzipora, and his amazing son Ben.

Dick Hyacinth
Dick Hyacinth was once known for saying angry things about other comics bloggers, then for writing about Trader Joe's junk food, then for compiling year's best lists into one big list (the semi-beloved Meta-list), and finally for making jokes about Ben Grimm's penis. He'd like to think he's the second-most prominent vegetarian and second- or third-most prominent MMA advocate in the comics blogosphere. His blog can be found here.
Abhay Khosla
Abhay Khosla refuses to provide our website with a short biography. Instead we got this 5 page e-mail about how he "refused to prostitute himself to nerds" or something. Oh god, we hate him.
Diana Kingston-Gabai
Diana Kingston-Gabai started reading comics when she was fourteen; her move from England to the Middle East forced a lengthy hiatus, but fortunately the last comic she read was "X-Men: Omega" so she was pretty sure the Marvel Universe had blown up anyway. Years later, she picked up Grant Morrison's "E Is For Extinction" on a whim, and that led to an extensive romp through the best of Marvel, DC, 2000AD, Image and Dark Horse. She also became a big fan of webcomics and the unparalleled creative freedom they offer. Her favorite writers still working in comics are Brian Vaughan, Joss Whedon, the Luna Brothers, Ed Brubaker, Grant Morrison (when he's not tripping like Courtney Love on a post-rehab binge), Mike Carey, Gail Simone and Peter David. Pet peeves include editorial mandates, writer's fiat, John Byrne Syndrome (ego > talent) and favoritism trumping stylistic compatibility.
Jeff Lester
Jeff Lester's icon is a giant fucking tooth. That's right. A giant fucking tooth.
Joe McCulloch
Joe McCulloch is the international muscle king behind Jog - The Blog, the internet site that is actually Heaven itself. He covers movies 'n stuff for comiXology, and can be read print-style in The Comics Journal, Comics Comics and Bookforum.
Graeme McMillan
Graeme McMillan's favorite comics today are Jack Kirby's Fourth World books, Bryan Lee O'Malley's Scott Pilgrim and Eddie Campbell's autobiographical stuff. His favorite person is Kate. His favorite word is "pistachio," and his favorite musical instrument is probably a crunchy Hammond B3. He's the weekend editor at io9.com. His personal blog is: IAmGraemeMcMillan.com. He's written for Newsarama, Comics International and Comic Foundry, appeared on panels at San Diego and is more shy than he seems.
Tucker Stone
Tucker Stone isn't an actual person, but a conglomerate of various individuals (mostly Russians) who write for The Factual Opinion and comiXology. They believe in unicorns, guardian angels, and the phrase "coated in gore."
David Uzumeri
David Uzumeri is a South Canadian Code Monkey foraging for pizzas and beers in the urban jungle of Toronto. On occasion, naturalists have espied him enjoying superhero comics, manga, indie books and basically
anything that doesn't involve Robots versus Werewolves versus Zombies or some shit. He also blogs at Funnybook Babylon.
Douglas Wolk
Douglas Wolk is the author of Reading Comics, and has also written about comics for the New York Times, Salon, the Washington Post, Publishers Weekly and elsewhere. He also blogs at Lacunae.
