– Jody Savin
It’s commonly referred to as the “Judgment of Paris,” a blind wine tasting staged thirty-two years ago that pitted a number of French reds and whites against some upstart competitors from California’s Napa Valley.

– Paul Pope
Paul Pope has built a reputation as a visionary artist and writer on the strength of some of the most acclaimed graphic novels of the past decade, including Heavy Liquid and 100%. His multiple-Eisner-winning story, Batman: Year 100, immersed the dark knight in the same kind of near-future dystopia that makes his creator-owned work so thrilling.
