MEET THE SAVANTS: --- DAVE POTTER is a long time comic fan, and tells strangers his stint working in a comic store was largely the inspiration for Clerks. By day, he convinces heathens that comics are a valid art form; recent converts to the truth have experienced restored sight and also begun walking again. By night, Potter roams the city in cape and mask, dispensing his own unique form of violent vigilante justice. His true identity must remain concealed to protect his loved ones. He may be contacted at trojan224@aol.com ALEC AUSTIN is a student at Reed College, doing his thesis on combinatorial game theory. He splits his spare time between editing Savant, writing stories and essays, and reading an endless succession of books and comics. Say hello at austina@reed.edu STEVE PHELEY fully expects that, someday, the fact that he had reviews in the first issue of SAVANT will be far more impressive than it is today. He's a sucker for scoring "I knew him/her/it when..." points. Email him at spheley@umich.edu. JOHN CECIL recently had one of those cliché moments where he steps out of the shower and notices that there's less hair on his forehead than there used to be. Obviously a trick of the light, he thought, until he investigated and realized he had already developed the Jack Nicholson "horns" of baldness that give him a devilish-looking hairline. It'll be cool for a few years, then he'll be his fucking dad. And that's too horrible a fate to contemplate. Write him at ninesummon@aol.com MAUREEN McTIGUE has been reading comics since she was 12 and working in and around comics since she was 21. From Starlog and Comics Scene to DC marketing and editorial to WizardWorld.com, she just can't seem to shake this four-color medium. Which isn't such a bad thing. And she likes superheroes, to boot! She can be reached at mmctigue@wizardworld.com As a hobby intended to improve relations between the US and Canada, PAUL T. RIDDELL dedicates most of his free time to convincing ignorant Americans that the South Park movie is not reality, the Canadian national anthem is not sung by Terrance and Phillip, and that it doesn't start with the lines "Shut your fucking mouth, uncle fuckah..." However, he is in favor of Canada bombing the Balwdins and Arquettes on general principles.

Contact him at larry@ait-planetlar.com MATT FRACTION regrets nothing. KATHERINE KELLER is a native of the US Desert Southwest. She learned how to read at the age of 3.
