Kinda interested to know which Marvel titles he's working on. I was never able to find a decent entry point into reading DC or Marvel comics just because they're so huge, but starting with comics from a writer who I know is good and I've enjoyed... that could work. Anyone know what he writes?

Just throwing this out there: the voice of Prowl and Tarantulas will be at TFcon. Someone needs to bring their Sins of the Wreckers book for them to do a reading together.
