RICH JOHNSTON will track the rise of independent creators and examine the most influential titles right now, and we'll delve into the most cutting- edge indie-flavored comics from major publishers this year. We'll also look at what it currently means to be independent in filmmaking and video game creation and you'll find included our Price Guide on creator-owned and independent comic titles rocking the collectors' market.

    Written by Rich Johnston. Gadgetry and human modification have been staples of speculative fiction since its inception. The allure of technology bringing superior skills to worthy or less than worthy individuals continues to play out in mainstream and indie comics titles today.

Who really makes the moves that shape the comics you buy? RICH JOHNSTON lays bare the real power behind the PR. The scramble to the top of the comics industry takes new and bizarre twists every year, and the outlying factors are always the most intriguing and one thing always holds true-there will be surprises based as much on little known information as on public displays of power.
