ComicVine is a new social network for comic book characters and their fans. Best described as a cross between Wikipedia and Facebook, it actually looks like a good time for those of the comic book geek variety, and it's very nicely designed, which doesn't hurt.

I know I may be a little bit behind on this one, but WOW!!! Brian K. Vaughan has been hired to the writing staff over at LOST!

The creator and writer of such incredible stories as Y:The Last Man, Ex Machina, Pride of Baghdad, and Runaways is now working with the Others and the Island -- so exciting!

The only thing I am wondering is why BKV would do this. After all, he has become quite the celebrity in the comics/graphic novel this past year, and is even working with New Line on film/tv versions of Y: The Last Man and Ex Machina. Does he really need to deign to be one of many writers on a TV show creatively controlled by men not him?

Clearly, either it is a better deal than I am assuming or else he didn't see it as a step down.

Either way, we the audience win as Wizard's "writer of the year" is now on the best drama on television.
