Contributors

Jim Yoho is the owner of In Genre, Wausau Comics, and JAY Entertainment and he maintains the site as well as adding the occasional article or review of his own.  He often goes by Merin online, from way back in the BBS days of dial-up modems even.

Having enjoyed writing reviews and postings for other sites he decided to start his own where he combined his creative urges to write and create web comics (such as Episode Fun and Alistair & Arthur)  with his long-held desire to bring together and organize talented people for joint projects.   The end result is that you get the Wausau Comics site - articles and reviews of genre entertainment at In Genre plus some web comics and links to the works of other Contributors, too!

It’s Over

Michael Re is a freelance writer of both fiction and non-fiction, and story-telling has long been the proverbial monkey on his back.  For the last few years, he’s worked as a critic of comics, film, and television, all the while toiling away at his own creative pursuits in an effort to always put his money where his mouth is.  His most noteworthy accomplishments are as a song-writer, having co-written and performed on nearly a dozen records.  He also watches entirely too much television, and is very glad for an opportunity to justify doing so.

Michael is also an acting editor at In Genre.

Pete’s Rambling Observations

Pete Schueler is currently residing in Berlin, Germany. He’s desperately trying to get his writing career somewhere. Where that is exactly, is not defined yet, but it should be somewhere where it’s visible. He’s been a comic book and pop culture geek all his life, but started reading them funny-books again on a weekly basis just three short years ago. In this time he matured from reading just DC books, to preferring mostly Indie titles. He still has a reverence for the Big Two and superheroes in general, and consumes them at a regular rate. The books, not the heroes.

Memoirs of a Jaded Otaku

Jonathan L. Switzer has a clear and vivid memory of sitting in his dad’s lap and reading the third issue of Frank Miller’s The Dark Knight Returns at the tender age of five. That early experience, along with a couple of die-cast Shogun Warriors toys and the local library’s copy of Frederik Schodt’s Manga! Manga! The World of Japanese Comics, seemed to set his fate in stone. For three years, he worked at a Southeast Kansas Japanese animation specialty store, immersed in anime & manga to the point that it started to give him a nasty rash. He was a contributing writer on The Art of Robotech: The Shadow Chronicles, had an article on the Robotech franchise published in Protoculture Addicts magazine (issue #94, Nov-Dec. 2007), is a founding member of Ally Comix, and — when he finds the time — writes & draws the ongoing comic series Scwonkey Dog. Oh, and he writes a manga review every month for this very website.
