The Comics Buyers Guide must be where I saw her name. I occasionally browse through it, but I don't think it's worth its $4 price tag. (I think it costs $4, anyway.)<BR>
<BR>
Speaking of comic book-themed magazines, though, I think "The Comics Journal" is probably the best out there, despite undeniably pompous overtones. Gemstone's own "Comic Book Marketplace" is high quality as far as the publishing goes, but I don't think the writing is as strong as the Journal's. (At least fom what I've seen.)<BR>

Did anyone read Don Markstein's article regarding Disney comics in an issue of "Comic Book Marketplace" this summer? I thought it was great.<BR>
