And so begins the 2004 post-mortems

Comic Book Galaxy kicks off the year-in-review onslaught in fine fashion with a rundown of the Best of 2004, and a roundtable discussion featuring Chris Allen, Christopher Butcher, Dirk Deppey, Shawn Hoke, Jason Marcy, Bryan Lee O'Malley, Eric Reynolds, Jim Rugg, Tom Spurgeon, Rob Vollmar and Brett Warnock.

I think I prefer Spurgeon's description: "Alan David Doane asks the questions; a crack team of like-minded cranks provides variations on the same answers."
