About Avi Gibson
Avi Gibson is a ScreenRant comics contributor and a freelance writer/editor with an MA in publishing. His goal is to add a little more wonder to the world in any way he can, and yearns to one day have a library in his home that contains at least one secret passage.
Industry Focus
As a comics contributor, Avi loves delving into the dynamics of various comic book families, such as Superman's, Batman's Bat-Family, the Flash Family, and the Fantastic Four. He's always on the lookout for issues and titles that display the true heart of their characters (Astro City is a masterclass in this regard).
Favorite Media
Avi loves fantasy in virtually any form, from cartoons such as The Owl House and Over the Garden Wall to books like Spinning Silver, Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrel, and The Last Unicorn. He is currently on his nth playthrough of Elden Ring, and please beware: he can and will explain the entire story of Kingdom Hearts to you.
