In keeping with tradition, we’re ringing in the new year by looking at some of the stuff that’s impacted our little corner of the interweb over the past twelve months. This includes some of the news bits the Fabler Blog has reported on, some of the changes and landmarks the main site has experienced, and of course, a Coles Notes list of the interviewees we’ve featured on the site throughout 2010.

Last year when I spoke with James Turner, his miniseries Warlord of Io had just been canceled on account of Diamond raising their benchmarks for distribution. He persevered and completed enough of Io to fill a graphic novel anyway. I talked with him recently about the pending release of Warlord of Io the Graphic Novel in July, and about his experience getting it finished and out there. Read the interview to find out more about ‘the Warlord that Diamond couldn’t kill’.
