Full content tomorrow due to lazy Saturday! In the meantime, enjoy Will Eisner's all-new cover of Hero Illustrated #17 where the Spirit faces off against some 1990s badguys! 
For those who don't know, Hero Illustrated was a (relatively) short-lived competitor to Wizard Magazine which was often a little more in-depth and focused a lot on Vertigo, independents and others. It only lasted 26 issues and a few specials, but has a lot of interesting stuff
I only owned one single issue of this versus many of Wizard, but it was one I treasured because it contained a fantastic overview of Valiant's comics and tons of other features that I re-read many times. That was issue 18.
Cool thing Hero did consistently: Let creators do reviews and columns. Wizard did do this as well but much less frequently. You could get stuff like Jeff Smith reviewing Scott McCloud's "Understanding Comics" or @KurtBusiek talking about superhero deconstructions.
