• As with every passing issue of Wizard, Kevin features even MORE promiently this go-round. Here’s a complete summary of all the Askew-related goodness in the latest ish:

• Pages 10-11: There are 2 questions for Kevin in the letters page. Important Stuff:

  a) The old “is Rick Derris a real person?” question Kevin: “He’s more of an archetype. He’s the every-stud in high school who was rumored to have nailed, like, everybody – maybe even your mom.”

  b) How did Kev hook up with Jim Mahfood? Kevin: “They (Oni) urged me to let him do Clerks, and thankfully I listened. Jim is great.”

  c) What is Kevin reading right now? Kevin: Daredevil, Preacher, InHumans, Superman Adventures, Gotham Adventures and JLA.

  d) Any chance of Kevin writing an X-Men book? Kevin: “you’ll never meet a bigger non-X-fan than me. Never dug ’em, and I probably never will. But I’ll be the first in line for the movie.”

• Page 70: A complete Kevin smith page. A huge article on the Clerks Animated series, and a smaller article detailing Disney/Miramax’s selling of Dogma. The only stuff coming out of this article that most of us didn’t know is that HBO was indeed one of thje companies vying for the series. Also, it says that everything is “based on Jim Mahfood’s designs, but after that it goes through the Disney animation department.”
• Page 115: Kevin is back to being the # 1 writer on the hot sheet. This month they had all the writers depicted as South Park characters, Kevin’s is pretty funny.
• Page 117: Daredvil # 1 is listed as fifth on the hot comics list.
• And Finally, The BIG ONE: Next month in issue #96, Wizard will have an offer to send away for a Dardevil #1/2 written by Kevin. These will be pretty exclusive I would imagine. We hear the issue will be available on either June 23rd, or the 30th.

We’ll keep ya posted on all the latest, especially that DD #1/2 issue. We can’t wait to get a look at that puppy!
