Tini Howard got her start in comics as a winner of the Top Cow Talent Hunt in 2013, which earned her the chance to write Magdelena- Seventh Sacrament (December 2014, Image/Top Cow). Since then she's worked on The Skeptics, Hack/Slash and Rick and Morty- Pocket Like You Stole It. She also writes about comics, primarily for TeenVogue.com and Paste magazine's website. Tini is a Slytherin. Gilbert Hernandez is the creator, with his brother Jaime, of Love and Rockets, a modern classic that debuted in 1981. Gilbert's contribution to the series is the long-running Palomar saga, which tells the stories of the inhabitants of a Central American village. L&R's first volume ended in 1996, but more followed, and the series continues to this day, published by Fantagraphics. Gilbert has also worked with DC, Dark Horse, IDW, and Drawn & Quarterly. In 2017, Gilbert and Jaime were inducted into the Will Eisner Hall of Fame.
