About Me

I'm a writer splitting my time between comics and magazines. My comic credits include Wolverine for Marvel, Star Wars: Rebellion and Star Wars Tales for Dark Horse, a bunch of stuff for 2000AD and the Judge Dredd Megazine including The Ten-Seconders, Low Life, Meet Darren Dead, Family, Breathing Space and Asylum. Also, Cla$$war for Com.X.My magazine credits are too numerous and boring to mention.
