Buffyversity: The Plot Serves the Fans

By Jaina Hill | Nov 19, 2019 | Columns

By Jaina Hill | Nov 4, 2019 | Columns

We’ll learn, we’ll laugh, maybe we’ll make some new […]

We Want Comics: “Weird Al” Yankovic

By Jaina Hill | Oct 22, 2019 | Columns

Last month we celebrated music we love in We Want Comics, the sorts of bands and artists who inspire whole worlds. And there’s one musical artist in particular who grabs my imagination, though you might think it strange. Well, maybe not strange exactly… Alfred Matthew Yankovic is an American icon, entertaining audiences for almost half […]
