Video games, comics, movies, television. All of our fields are linked by the fans. But moreso than that, we ARE a part of our own target audience. We ARE fans!! And since we all have our own insights into the industry, we should have a better understanding of what makes things tick. So, now is the time to speak up.

What are you looking for in a show? In a magazine? In a game? In a comic? What would grab YOUR interest, take hold, and never let go. For example, these projects I'm working on ... what do you think is missing in the coverage of our industry, as both fans and as professionals?

And hell, this line of thought should apply to ALL of our projects. To all my comic pros here, what kinds of games get your creative juices flowing? To my media people, what kinds of comics could give you the same feeling as a major summer blockbuster? And to my game developers, what sort of television or motion pictures inspire you to cinematic excellence?

Now's the time for all of us to rally together and make a difference in what we do. Don't just sit back and hope for things to change ... let's work together and MAKE things change. I want our industry to not simply survive, but to thrive, to grow, and to evolve into something more than it's ever been.
