Maggie Thompson
Margaret "Maggie" Thompson (born Margaret Curtis on November 29, 1942),〔''Comics Buyer's Guide'' #1636 (December 2007); Page 135〕 is a former librarian, longtime editor of the now-defunct ''Comics Buyer's Guide'' (a monthly comic book industry news magazine), science fiction fan and collector of comics.
== Background, marriage and fandom ==
Her mother, Betty Curtis, was a science fiction writer, who was nominated for the Hugo Award for Best Short Story in 1969 for her story "The Steiger Effect"; she carried on a long correspondence with colleagues such as Robert Heinlein and L. Ron Hubbard. According to family tradition, Betty claimed descent from Anne Bradstreet and at least two presidents of Yale University.
Thompson and her late husband and fellow science fiction fan Don Thompson (October 30, 1935-May 23, 1994), were among the instigators of what developed in the 1960s into comic book fandom.
Their ''Harbinger'' (a mimeographed one-sheet published in the autumn of 1960) announced the upcoming publication of ''Comic Art'', one of the early amateur magazines devoted to all aspects of sequential art (a term not then in use). The initial issue of ''Comic Art'' was released the following spring.〔(Biographical information at CBGXtra.com )〕 Seven issues were published at irregular intervals between 1961 and 1968. As publication of ''Comic Art'' wound down, they shifted their attention to a new venture as the Thompsons started a fanzine titled ''Newfangles'' in March 1967. Unlike other comics news fanzines of the time it was devoted to the doings of comics fandom instead of news about comic books and comic book professionals.〔(Newfangles #1 online reprint introduction )〕
