Comic Maven's 2016 Recap

A lot happened this year. I started officially working and not just interning for Action Lab Entertainment. I've been writing interviews showcasing dozens of Kickstarters for Comic Frontline and writing other comic related articles. I've been editing and occassionally writing for the comic book section of Entertainment Fuse. And this year I started writing lists for Screen Rant that have gotten over 5 million views. It has been a busy year filled with writing and editing. I plan on doing even more in 2017!

But what better way to see how the year was then to list every article I've written and comic book released!
