Rick Baker began publishing Eastern Heroes magazine in 1988 and, in 2020 launched Eastern Heroes Publishing, sharing his love for Hong Kong cinema with enthusiasts worldwide. Over the course of five years, from 1988 to 1993, Rick curated more than forty events at renowned venues (including London’s esteemed Scala Cinema), attracting special guests such as Hong Kong movie superstars Chow Yun-Fat, Donnie Yen, Jet Li, Gordon Liu, Maggie Cheung, Cynthia Rothrock and John Woo, among others. He has been an adviser on the cult TV series The Incredibly Strange Picture Show, started the label Eastern Heroes Distribution which specializes in the release of Hong Kong movies on video and DVD, co-created the six-part TV series Stop! Kung Fu!, presented awards and was a panel guest at the 2022 Urban Action Showcase International Action Film Festival, in Times Square, NYC, and appears in the feature length, theatrically-released documentary Scala!!! or, The Incredibly Strange Rise and Fall of the World’s Wildest Cinema and How It Influenced a Mixed-Up Generation of Weirdos and Misfits, talking about the popular kung fu triple bill film shows he hosted at the venue. Ken Miller is a contributor to Eastern Heroes magazine, and was the publisher of Imaginator magazine, which covered horror, fantasy, sci-fi, kung fu and action films, especially those from Hong Kong, as well as co-publisher of Film Extremes magazine. He was the co-creator of  the six-part BBC entertainment show Stop! Kung Fu! (2001), a series hosted by Jonathan Ross, featuring a delirious deluge of awesome kung fu movie clips.
