Hi, I'm Lawrence King, a new editor here.

Rather than divulging my age, let me just say that among the first comics I ever bought were World's Finest # 218, Kamandi # 8, and Batman # 250.

I drifted away from comics reading in the mid 1990s, and recently learned about the "New 52" reboot. The marketing wizards at DC intended the reboot to draw in new customers who no longer had to fear seventy years of continuity. But for me, it had the opposite effect. I said to myself, "I love stories with endings. And now the great DC epic that began in 1938 actually has an ending in 2011!" So now I have delved back into reading DC from where I left off in the 1990s, and am now in the middle of No Man's Land. I plan to keep reading until I reach October 2011 and the great saga concludes!

I don't know how much editing I will have time for here, but it will all be "old" stuff... if that's okay with you all. 01:58, June 22, 2013 (UTC)
