Martin Boruta
Martin Boruta has been reading and collecting comics for over 40 years. A life long fan of Captain Canuck, Martin is the curator of The Unofficial Yet Definitive Captain Canuck Comicography website. Since 2016, Martin has been reviewing comic books and highlighting great new Kickstarter projects at First Comics News. Recently Martin expanded his writing and contributes to Sequential Magazine. For kicks Martin enjoys teaming up with his pals and sharing hosting duties on The Hey Kids Comics Radio Show broadcast on Trent Radio 92.7 CFFF FM in lovely Peterborough, ON Canada and available at First Comics News & The Hey Kids Comics Radio Show website. Martin is an active member of the Canadian Comic Book Alliance and can be found participating in the lively conversations on the Peterborough Comic Book Collectors Facebook group. In his various adventures, Martin has demonstrated an innate ability to spell “Erik Larsen” incorrectly. You can send Marty an email at martin@boruta.ca but if it is spam, he might make a voodoo doll of you, just sayin'.
