About Me

My prohibition era supernatural crime comic book, The Damned , is available from Oni Press. The first five issues have been collected in a trade paperback titled The Damned: Three Days Dead. I'm currently working on the second of two follow-up arcs, the first of which will be released in early 2008. The Damned is slated for film adaptation by Dreamworks.
I've lived all across North Carolina and Missouri, and I currently reside in the St. Louis area with my lovely wife, Cindy, who is a better person than I can ever hope to be.For more about me:
