Know Your Heroes: The Dark Designs of Jhonen Vasquez
Nov 22, 2019
Typically, for Know Your Heroes, we zero in on specific characters or a character. Then a funny thing happened. We realized that a hero can be a creator too (*GASP*)! So this month's installment of "KYH" is on an alternative comics fav: Jhonen Vasquez - the creator behind Invader Zim and many other cult hits.
Originally featured on PREVIEWSworld Weekly, our very own Thea Curley hosts this one. And if you can't tell...she's a big fan.
