Carla Hoffman has been a Bat-Fan since 1989 and a prophetical showing of Tim Burton's Batman movie.  She has been a comic book afficionado since 1992, with the advent of the X-Men: The Animated Series debuting on her local FOX affiliate.  She then learned that they made a LOT of Batman comics.

And the rest, as they say, is history. 

When not binge watching Gotham, Carla Hoffman works for Metro Entertainment, Santa Barbara's best place for comics, games and toys, spends time writing for various online comics news organizations such as Blog@Newsarama, Robot 6 @ CBR and Smash Pages!  She enjoys pro-wrestling, collecting comics, and exploring the caves of the unknown.

While he wasn't obsessed with Gotham when it came out, Kurt has been a geek for as far back as he can remember, playing D&D at age 6, reading sci-fi and fantasy as soon as he could check out books at the library, and obsessing over comic book superheroes since watching Super Friends on Saturday mornings.  He's been a LARPer, a DM, and a webcomic writer (Dr. Lobster).

Kurt has worked in a number of fields, including writing and interviewing for syndicated radio, computer tech support, and as the manager of Metropolis Comics in Bellflower, CA for a number of years before moving up to Eugene, OR.  He currently has a day job in Accounts Payable, but spends as much time as he can pursuing all of his geeky hobbies.
