RAID Studio profiled on AT&T U-Verse Buzz
If you'd like to learn a little more about the comic creators of RAID Studio then look no further than AT&T's U-Verse Buzz, who posted an excellent 30 minute video profile on four of its members. Our own Anthony Falcone is a member and makes a few appearances on the video. Unfortunately the video can't be embedded so you'll need to go to their website.

I own most of these so it's been fairly easy to collect the information, but as more publishers join in information will have to be gathered from solicitations and online reviews.
