About Me

I am a Writer / Cartoonist, who works in the Music Industry? Yes it's an interesting mix. I am a Dad, a Husband, a comic book collectin' - Sci-fi convention goin' - J.R.R. Tolkien readin' - D&D Playin' nerd boy and proud of it. Well who wouldn't be proud of their wife & kids, but the D&D thing...that gets questionable. I'm also a huge film and music fan. I Love the creative process and working with other creative people. I am a (NYC) New York Catholic, and pretty conservative, but don't hold it against me!

My Interests

Comics and Toy collecting, RPG's, Film, Writing, Sci-Fi / Fantasy, Music, and Art.

I'd like to meet:

Other creative types, writers, Illustrators, Animators, Webheads, etc... It's just great to hear from other people in the field, if for anything, to hear their success stories, or lack there of. I'm always on the look out for new contacts...

Music:

I am a huge Metalhead, mostly what is now called "Classic Metal" God, I'm gettin' old... Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath, Metallica, Twisted Sister, Deep Purple, King Diamond, Queensryche, the list goes on and on. Lately though MASTODON has been the most played band on my player. Among others like Pagan's Mind, Tad Morose, Dungeon, Wizard, and others.

Movies:

O.K. not to feed more into the stereotype that is my life, I am also a Gigantic fan of Bruce Campbell and Sam Raimi. The EVIL DEAD series will forever be one of, if not my favorite collection of movies. I love films that dont take themselves too seriously, and when they do, because of the content do not seem "snobby" like the Lord of the Rings films. I go to movies to have fun, not have a good cry. I can do that when I get my Cable bill!

Television:

Not a WHOLE LOT of good TV now a days, sadly "Reality" TV is still going strong, that will change like all things, but until then, I guess instead of watching a character grow and change through a seven year run of a really good series, and feeling so attached to those characters it brings a tear to your eye when that series finale airs, we get to watch chicks with big tits eat worms for 50 grand.

Books:

Lord of the Rings Trilogy - Tolkien the Demon Wars Saga - R.A. Salvatore anything by Robert E. Howard Mythago Wood by Robert Holdstock Green Lantern - Rebirth series by Geoff Johns the New Avengers - ongoing series by Brian Michael Bendis Mage - the Hero Defined by Matt Wagner Day of Vengence -seires by Bill Willingham

Heroes:

Sam Raimi, Bruce Campbell, and Rob Tapert for starting with nothing and creating some of the most known genre films, and T.V. in history. Peter Jackson for doing the same. Working on his first film on weekends and holidays and ultimately getting an academy award (not that its anything more than a really expensive paper weight) but you understand. and lest we forget Mel Gibson for taking the leap of faith he did with the Passion. These guys did what they loved, the way they wanted to do it, and won.
