Introduction: I'm a freelance writer with the goal of working at Marvel one day. I'm the webmaster of two Ghostbusters websites (NYGB Tourguide & Comicguide), writer about comics for an E-Zine about books called Estella's Revenge, and conduct staff interviews for small publisher Guild Works Productions. I am a proud member and NY coordinator of the Comicbook Artists Guild. In my spare time I work on various other projects just to keep in practice for the days I can do them professionally, which can range anywhere from comics to movies. Collects: I get every new Marvel that comes out, with the (impossible, I know) goal of getting every backissue as well. Recently, I've expanded my comics to include other companies such as DC or Devil's Due. I also collect toys, cards and posters as well as various other comic and non-comic related knick knacks. Why Spider-Man: I've always been into heroes and comic stuff thanks to the likes of He-Man and Thundercats, but I didn't start collecting until I first played 1991's X-Men arcade game by Konami. I just fell in love, particularly with Wolverine. That Christmas, my family gave me my first batch of comics (the top one I count as my #1 being Silver Surfer vol. 3 #55 and the second being Amazing Spider-Man vol. 1 #358) and it grew from there. Soon I was getting toys, clothing, books, cards and anything else with the Marvel logo on it, being that it was the only company to appeal to me at the time(although somehow I wound up with a decent collection of non-Marvels...only one I actually bought was the Death of Superman trade). However, in recent years, the other guys have started to put stuff out I've taken a notice in so my collection's expanded quite a bit. I've also attained a long-awaited goal of over 10,000 comics! Favourites: The Clone Saga, Spider-Girl's entire run, The Commuter Cometh, early Ultimate Spider-Man, Slingers entire run. Chris Buchner may Edit his/her details.
