Because if we're going to try and stop the misuse of our favorite comics and their protagonists by the companies that write and publish them, we've got to see what both the printed and online comics news is doing wrong. This blog focuses on both the good and the bad, the newspaper media and the online websites. Unabashedly. Unapologetically. Scanning the media for what's being done right and what's being done wrong.
It seems pretty odd to me that Greg Rucka, who began as a novelist plenty of time before he became a comics writer, is asking for examples and ideas for names of fictional detectives and their business agencies for a writing project he's doing (which, for all I know, could possibly be comics related). I don't get it, surely a successful novelist could think of a lot of these possibilities himself? It's very puzzling.

I was born in Pennsylvania in 1974, and moved to Israel in 1983. I also enjoyed reading a lot of comics when I was young, the first being Fantastic Four. I maintain a strong belief in the public's right to knowledge and accuracy in facts. I like to think of myself as a conservative-style version of Clark Kent. I don't expect to be perfect at the job, but I do my best.
