Below is quote from an article by Steve Buccellato , one of the creators/publishers of a new comics magazine called COMICULTURE . Read his explanation of what their group is all about. Might remind you of certain local comic book groups. :)

"COMICULTURE is produced by a pretty closely knit group of comics pros. We are working for FREE, funding the project ourselves, and supporting it with a lot of our own precious time, sweat and love.
