My Interests

Writing, music, photography, archeology, eugenics, history, philosophy, graphic novels, video games, shenanigans and being creative with a core of trusted friends!!!

I'd like to meet:


I want to meet anyone that has a passion for creating comic books and sequential artwork. I particularly want to meet people that HAVE days jobs and still dream of working in the comic book industry, like myself. More specifically, if you live in the Toronto, Ontario area and are interested, we NEED a colourist, letterer and designer... as well as another couple of feature artists, for both cover work and for new series. Now if you're reading this and you don't think that your skills are good enough, I PARTICULARLY want to talk to YOU!
