AC Comics Staff–Rebekah Black

Rebekah Black Now, Rebekah Black knew little about mainstream comics while at Florida State University studying Interior Design. She did have the experience of reading Disney Comics and Little LuLu , along with Archie Comics as a child. She also had two close relatives that called her “Little Iodine” after the comic book character of the ’50’s. When she met and married Bill he produced a pile of Fantastic Four comics for her to read so that she would know what he was talking about. She found the whole idea of superheroes and heroines fascinating and fun….the fact that people had super powers was not silly, but rather a great fantasy (perhaps because she had always thought it would be wonderful to fly like a bird). Rebekah taught Interior Design at Florida State, while Bill was with the Media Center, and they later moved to Central Florida where AC Comics was eventually born. She began her career in the comic book industry as a colorist, office manager, publicist, etc. Presently, her chief responsibility, besides keeping Bill in line and telling everyone what to do, is reminding pencilers like Brad Gorby not to make the FF ladies’ bustline too large! In her free time, Rebekah worries about family members (including the cats) reads nonfiction., snoozes in front of the TV and tries to stay awake through the evening news.
