About the Author
JONATHAN MORRIS is a cartoonist and graphic designer. Since the late 1990's, he's operated the blog Gone and Forgotten, an irreverent, in-depth and occasionally vulgar look at the worst, the lowliest and most unfortunate stories and characters comic books have offered. In 2001, he was invited to participate on a superheroes-themed episode of the public radio program This American Life, which remains a popular and frequently-rebroadcast episode. Besides Gone and Forgotten, Jon also operates The Chronological Superman, a blog dedicated to holistically chronicling every individual appearance of Superman from his formative years beginning in 1938 through the end of 1949. He's a frequent contributor and contest judge on Project:Rooftop, a site dedicated to superhero redesigns, and has curated such comic book-related collaborative online events as DC FIFTY-TOO, CORNERED, THE OFFICIAL HANDBOOK OF THE MARVEL UNIVERSE:REDUXE EDITION and others. He also writes about television, music and popular culture in general. His webcomic Jeremy: Just Turned Nine was nominated for the industry's Ignatz Award in 2001, and he is currently the editor for, and contributor to, the annual Halloween comic book event BOO! Halloween Stories, available through Comixology.
