Craig Shutt is an American freelance writer and editor, best known as the author of "Baby Boomer Comics," a collection of his “Ask Mr. Silver Age” column about 1960s comics for the (''Comics Buyer’s Guide'' ) monthly magazine, which ceased publication in 2013. He also moderates the Mr. Silver Age message board at the ()"Comics Roundtable." ==Writing career== He became a freelance writer in 1992 and began writing humorous articles about comics for the ''Comics Buyer’s Guide'' with issue #955 (March 6, 1992). The articles focused on comics published during the years 1956-1970, known as the “Silver Age” of comic books. His column began in ''CBG'' #1020 (June 4, 1993) and became monthly in ''CBG'' #1476 (March 1, 2002). It ran in every issue until the last issue of CBG, #1699 (March 2013). His annual column on the “Mopee Awards” highlights Silver Age comics with illogical plots or events.The “Mopee” term derives from a character appearing in ''The Flash'' #167 (February 1967). The term now is used commonly in comics fandom to indicate a situation in a plot that fans ignore because it contradicts generally accepted continuity. Since 1996, he has moderated a Silver Age Trivia Challenge panel at the Chicago Comic-Com (formerly WizardWorld Chicago) and now The Chicago Comic & Entertainment Exhibition (C2E2). Four of his early columns were reprinted in ''Dr. Wonder'' #3 (July 1996), #4 (October 1996) and #5 (Fall 1997) published by Old Town Publishing. His ''Baby Boomer Comics'' book included illustrations of Mr. Silver Age by Jim Mooney, a long-time comic-book illustrator. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Craig Shutt」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
