During those strange, struggling early years I wallowed in embarrassment because I was a mere comic book writer. And now because of those same humble comic books

Here I am, the featured star of a real grown up book. The hero. Of my own life story. There's probably a moral hidden there. Feel free to search for it as we roll along.
