The other day something happened to me that's happened a few times before. I received a contributor's copy of the latest issue of Alter Ego in the mail, and my first thought was, "What do I have in this issue?" Since I knew I hadn't written an article, I figured it must contain a photo or artwork that I had sent Roy Thomas in the past and was only turning up now. And I was right, but not in the way that I thought!

Back when the first Wonder Woman movie came out, I sent Roy a graphic that I designed featuring WW co-creator Harry G. Peter asking, "What about Harry?" Then, as now, Harry hadn't been acknowledged as WW's co-creator, a fact which both I and the editor of AE feel is a wrong that needs to be righted. Since that was many years ago I had completely forgotten about it, and was pleasantly surprised to see it appear as part of the article.

Bill Finger eventually got his credit on Batman, so maybe H.G. Peter's rightful acknowledgement for his role in the creation of Wonder Woman is something we'll eventually see. And hey, I've now been officially dubbed a comics historian by none other than Roy Thomas himself! Guess I'll have to print up new business cards!

It can finally be revealed! You've seen the cover, now take a look at the inside of Comic Book Creator # 44 with the first part of my three part interview with Joe Hill.

Joe has already mentioned it on his Substack, so don't be left out! Final Order Cut-Off is still March 2nd, the order code is still 0226TM1100, and it's still in stores on June 10th, or directly from the publisher if you want your copy shipped directly to your door!

It's not February yet, but Lunar's February catalogue is out now, and it features Comic Book Creator # 44 with Part One of my three part interview with Joe Hill! Final Order Cut-Off is March 2nd, the order code is 0226TM1100, and it's in stores on June 10th. I know, I know, that seems like a long time off, but order yours through your local store (or directly from the publisher) if you don't want to miss out!
