Created in 1995 by Justin Chung, World Famous Comics is one of the Web's first, largest and most frequented destinations for comic book and entertainment fans. Updated daily, WFC brings the very best to the Web by publishing exclusive columns, comics, contests and features.
The highly-recognized and influential Tony's Online Tips (1996-2010), by comics veteran Tony Isabella, is regarded as the longest run and the first regularly produced Web-column on comics.
Popular and still played daily at this site, Bob "The Answer Man" Rozakis' Anything Goes Trivia this is the world's oldest comics-related trivia contest. The contest originated on CompuServe, pre-dating the Web, before joining WFC.
In 1998, WFC produced the free Web-based classifieds that's been in use by the comic book collecting community for over a decade, ComicBookClassifieds.com.
In 2001, along with film director/writer Kevin Smith and his View Askew Productions, WFC produced for online fans one of the Web's first and largest collection of official comic creator message boards, the World Famous Comics Community (ComicsCommunity.com). It was at this site that creators like Brian Michael Bendis, Jeff Smith, Frank Cho and Mike Allred grew their online communities for years before spinning-off into their own popular destinations.
In 2003, WFC produced the popular and valuable online resource for trading card and sketch card collectors, SketchCards.com.
Under the direction and management of Ed Hawkins and Jeff Wedding, WFC also makes live appearances by exhibiting at conventions. Event attendees visiting the WFC exhibit can view as well as purchase a variety of comic book, sci-fi and fantasy art. They can also obtain autographs and free collectibles from WFC's featured artists and pop-culture guests.
