Creators Associated With Mojo Press
Although Mojo Press was broadly formed for one purpose: to publish Joe R. Lansdale and Klaw's Weird Business, that anthology was neither its first nor its only title. In 1996, Mojo brought Michael Moorcock's Behold the Man back into print, and helped launch the career of cover artist and illustrator John Picacio. During four-five years, Klaw and Ostrander worked with many other big science fiction, fantasy, horror and comics names. Some, like Jean "Moebius" Giraud (whose Blueberry Saga: Confederate Gold was nominated for the 1997 Eisner Award for Best Archival Collection) and Michael Moorcock were already legends in their respective fields, while others, like Picacio and comics artist Michael Lark were at the start of their careers.
Other authors and artists who produced work for Mojo Press include: Y: The Last Man-artist Pia Guerra, Hugo Award-nominee Neal Barrett, Jr., underground comix-artist Jack "Jaxon" Jackson, Too Much Coffee Man-creator Shannon Wheeler, horror-author Poppy Z. Brite, mythic fiction-pioneer Charles de Lint, mystery-writer Bill Crider, comics creator Batton Lash, award-winning short story writer Scott A. Cupp, Harvey Award-winning comics artist Scott Hampton, multi-award winning SciFi/Fantasy legend Roger Zelazny, Danger Boy-author Mark London Williams, artist and tattooer Jason Edward Morgan, comics artist and The Atheist-author Phil Hester, comics artist John Lucas, SciFi/fantasy illustrator Dave Dorman, and Star Wars- and Conan-comics writer Timothy Truman.

Famous quotes containing the words creators and/or press:
“What is most original in a man’s nature is often that which is most desperate. Thus new systems are forced on the world by men who simply cannot bear the pain of living with what is. Creators care nothing for their systems except that they be unique. If Hitler had been born in Nazi Germany he wouldn’t have been content to enjoy the atmosphere.”
—Leonard Cohen (b. 1934)
“The only reason I might go to the funeral is to make absolutely sure that he’s dead.”
—“An Eminent Editor” Of Press Baron. Quoted in Anthony Sampson, Anatomy of Britain Today, ch. 9 (1965)
