About Me

I'm a writer and drawer of comic books who currently lives with his girlfriend in rainy Seattle Warshin'-ton. In my spare time (which is plentiful if you've ever seen any of my books... ) I like to repaint toys to make them look cooler, write a weekly column about talk shows called "LATE NIGHT THING" with my pal & co-host Stephan Glander, listen to funny podcasts and kick-ass radio shows, and occasionally play Texas Hold 'em on XBL.
I used to be a drunk, but now that I drink mostly Merlot I've graduated to being a wino - ooh get behind me Satan.
As for comics, currently I am hard at work finishing my first graphic novel, DESCENT, written by my friend Andrew Dabb (Mu, Ghostbusters: Legion, all those Devil's Due elf books, and now that tv show Supernatural!) with all artwork done by me. It's taken far too long to finish it, but in the end I'm sure 4 people will buy a copy (and YOU better be one of those 4, yes YOU!), unfortunately only 2 of you (yes YOU!) will love it. Aw shucks.
Someday I hope to publish some of the (especially) weird books I've written, make cartoons, and also design custom toys based on the characters from my weird books and cartoons for you all to buy and love. Until that day though, I'll just keep hating myself like the good little comic person I am. Yay!

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Funny people, drawering people, old friends, new friends, people who want to give me money and jobs and then maybe wine (see "About me:"), and you. Yes, YOU.

Hug yourself for me.

10 Things I Will/Will Not Miss About Pittsburgh
