Anika Milik
If Anika had a million dollars – she’d go back to school for marine biology, sell her house and pack her family on to an (internet ready!) boat, and sail the world saving marine life and writing a truly wonderful memoir about being a whale-saving-mommy-on-a-boat. Or she’d get her Masters in Clinical Social Work and work as a children’s therapist with an office that featured quotes from Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland colorfully painted on the wall. Or she’d buy her own record company, put out fandom inspired albums and comic book musicals and go on tour as Becky Ryan of The Order.
But if Anika had a billion dollars, she’d be Batman.

Caroline Pruett
Caroline has been a teacher, a published poet, a moderately successful quiz show contestant, and a petty bureaucrat. If she’s not talking about comic books, at any given moment, she’s probably talking about Bruce Springsteen or King Lear. Spend enough time with her and you’ll get used to it.
In the past, Caroline’s favorite comic books have been Matt Fraction’s The Order and Fabian Nicieza’s Cable & Deadpool. Her favorite comic book at the moment is a closely guarded secret, so that the Powers that Be don’t find out and cancel it.

Jennifer Smith
The baby of the Fantastic Fangirls, Jennifer fell into comics while looking for something better written than X-Men: The Last Stand. As a grad student in media and cultural studies at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, Jennifer enjoys blogging about comic books as a low-pressure supplement to… writing academically about comic books. (No one has ever called her practical.) Her primary allegiance is to Marvel Comics, though she’s enjoying more and more DC, and she’s unashamed of her dedication to the X-Men, particularly Cyclops and the Beast. Captain America is her role model, and it’s possible that her doppelganger is Jennifer Walters, though none of her cousins have offered her gamma-irradiated blood as of yet.
Outside of comics, Jennifer enjoys musical theatre, sadly canceled TV shows, the filmographies of Johnny Depp and Christian Bale, and the myriad joys of her native New Jersey.

Sigrid Ellis
Since she spotted the trade paperback of the Dark Phoenix Saga on the shelf of her local library in 1987, Sigrid has been a comic book fan. The first comic she bought was Legion of Superheroes #300, the next was Marvel Team-Up Annual #6.
Sigrid dropped out of superhero comics at the start of the 90s boom, but kept up with the smaller, “mature” titles. She stayed loyal to Sandman, Strangers in Paradise, Hellblazer, and Doom Patrol, working her way back through Watchmen, V for Vendetta, and Sin City. In 2001 she found her way back to superhero comics and hasn’t regretted it.
