Dr. Seuss

Theodore Geisel, AKA Dr. Seuss, is one of the world's most beloved authors and illustrators, a man who, over the course of six decades, worked as a cartoonist, screenwriter, and commercial illustrator – but whose claim to immortality rests on his role as creator of some of the world's most beloved picture books.

If you've grown up reading comics and weren't alive during the 1930s, then deciding to fight Nazis at every opportunity probably seems like the most natural thing in the world to you. But it wasn't always so readily agreed upon. Before the United States entered the second World War, some groups in the U...

By now, you're probably pretty well acquainted with the art of Ryan Dunlavey. From his rather impressive stint with Fred Van Lente on "Action Philosophers," which I should mention got me through Western Civ 2 in college, to his spot-on nerd party art, the way that man has his way with lines should almost be illegal...
