*multiple Hugo Award winner Phil Foglio.

I get that John Lasseter is probably the most well-known, but Phil Foglio and the Girl Genius team have been releasing quality work for decades.

Yep! I should have included his accomplishments too but my brain assumed he was well known.

Probably the free logo with the most awarded talents behind it.

A lot of old time Magic The Gathering players are also familiar with Phil (and Katia) Foglio's work.
I stopped playing M:tG, after a frank conversation with my priest about whether I should be "pretending" to summon demons and cast sorceries, in public cafés, with street kids watching. We decided that I could find a more wholesome (and perhaps less absurdly expensive) hobby.

If only that priest had intervened in the 1990s, when I began to contemplate installing BSD instead of my father's Windows.
