Remember Marcus Thiele and Kevin Buckley (perhaps this interview will refresh your memory)? They are the co-creators of "The Strange and Many Eyes of Dr. LeFaux," a comic book property that has just landed them in the Top 10 of AT&T and Platinum Studio's "Comic Book Challenge" contest, in which the winner receives a "multi-media development and publishing deal."

We told you a few weeks ago about Platinum Studios' "American Idol"-style contest for comic creators, through which the winners will get a "multimedia development and publishing deal" based on their concept. At that time, we spoke to local guys Kevin Buckley and Marcus Thiele about their entry. We've just talked to another local writer/artist team with an entry in the Top 50: Navin Prasad and Chris Weiermiller.

Platinum Studios, a comic book publisher (KISS 4k (yes, about the band) and Hero by Night) is hosting a sort of "American Idol" for comic creators. A few of those contestants are from right here in the Bay Area. Kevin Buckley is the writer on this project and an artist in his own right, though Marcus Thiele, his partner, is the artist on their pitch: "The Strange and Many Eyes of Dr. LeFaux." Kevin and Marcus took a few minutes to talk about their art and living in the Bay Area.
