Jonathan
Vankin is a full-time professional (as far as it goes) writer whose work
has appeared in such allegedly reputable publications as The New York Times Magazine, Wired, Salon,
L.A.
Weekly. He wrote the critically lauded and just generally wonderful DC/Vertigo Comics series Vertigo Pop! Tokyo and the also-very-lauded Vertigo Pop! Bangkok.
Vankin is perhaps best known for the cult classic books Conspiracies,
Cover-Ups and Crimes and 70
Greatest Conspiracies of All Timeas well as The Big Book of the '70s and The
Big Book of Scandal from DC Comics. If you  have
not read them, read them. If you have not bought them, buy them.
With the formalities out of the way, why not come on in? Make yourself at home. Pull up a chair. Put your feet  up. Relax. Crackan ice-cold beer. Or a martini. On second thought, ditch the martini and just knock back a double scotch, straight up. Loosen your tie. Rip off your shirt. Slide your silk panties lasciviously low on your thighs.  Splay yourself out drunken and naked on the couch and let's visit -- with Vankin!
