Newsarama story
All the Rage story
(Et al.; widely reported)
Comics & media writer and antiwar propagandist Micah Wright has admitted faking a background as an Army Ranger. His spin is that this was a long-running media hoax, but that's clearly BS.
While I'm nonplussed, I can't say that I'm exactly surprised; Wright has seemed to me to be more interested in self-promotion than the work. (Comparisons to Michael Davis may not be inapt.)
Still, it's a hell of a story, and the comics industry's WTF moment of 2004.
