Jack Kirby! I curated the exhibition "Comic Book Apocalypse: The Graphic World of Jack Kirby" at California State University, Northridge, in 2015, co-edited the exhibition catalog (published by IDW), and wrote an Eisner-winning book about Kirby titled "Hand of Fire" (2012).

Plus, The Comics Studies Society: the US's first professional association for scholars and teachers of comic art: http://www.comicssociety.org [.] I am the founding president of CSS.

Plus, teaching comics!
