Today we welcome veteran comic book journalist and publicity agent Rik Offenberger to explore his multifaceted career, where he started as a retailer before transitioning to writing for Comics Buyer's Guide in 1992 and pioneering Internet-based comics journalism. Rik discusses his work as interviewer and senior feature editor at Silver Bullet Comic Books (now Comics Bulletin) and his interviews for Newsarama and Comic Book Resources, before succeeding Alex Segura as Public Relations Coordinator of Archie Comics in December 2005. We explore his founding of Super Hero News in 1998 and his 2010 co-founding of First Comics News, his decade of service on the Inkwell Awards Nominating Committee, earning him their 2023 Above & Beyond Award, and his newest venture, G-Man Comics, a guild-style publisher featuring traditional superheroes in a shared universe.You can follow Rick on Facebook.Support the show___________________Check out video versions of this and other episodes on YouTube: youtube.com/dollarbinbandits!If you like this podcast, please rate, review, and subscribe on Apple Podcasts or wherever you found this episode.
