About Me

A life long fan of comic books and pop culture, I started regularly writing letters to various comic companies in the late 1990s/early 2000s. After having dozens of letters published in the pages of books and magazines such as Superman, Rising Stars and Wizard, I turned to the internet as an outlet for my writing. In 2002 I joined the staff of a pop culture website, The Comic Skin Network , contributing comic book reviews and articles. My column, "The View From the Comfy Chair", quickly became the anchor of the comic section. After three years as chief correspondent for the site, I made the move to Broken Frontier, in early 2005.In addition to regularly contributing pieces on the history of comic books, conducting interviews with industry pros and the occassional review, I spend a good portion of my time to creating my own comic scripts and concepts.


Green is your Lightsaber's color.Green is the color of nature. It symbolizes growth, harmony, and freshness. Green has strong emotional correspondence with safety. Green is also commonly associated with wealth and happiness, so someone with a green lightsaber like yourself is a fortunate soul.

A god among gods, you keep your power in check. You are Superman, and thus, the world's biggest boyscout. Compelled to serve truth and justice, you try and protect all of existence with no thought to yourself. If you only were a bit more pro-active, rather than reactive, with your great power you could do great things.
