Here’s more from the press release: “Mark Bernardi has worked in and around the publishing industry for over 25 years. While he attended the University of Texas at Austin, he worked for five and a half years at the 120-year-old University Co-op Bookstore, in both the trade and textbook departments. He then spent two years as circulation director for the now-defunct national magazine distributor Fine Print before joining Dark Horse Comics in 1996.”
