About Me

Charlie Kirchoff: Comic Book Colorist
Charlie Kirchoff discovered his artistic aptitude as a child when he found that urine made an acceptable substitute for water when making sandcastles. Later, in college, he realized his talent for filling empty spaces and logically became a colorist. Charlie lives with his wife, Elbonie (a black woman who enjoys pretending to be a white man on the Internet), their pet rat, Ozymandius (who looks like a tribble with a tail), and their ferret, Grendel (who may not be too bright but heâ€,,s loved). Charlie enjoys the "clothing optional" lifestyle of being a freelancer, however his lack of social interaction has taken a serious toll on his verbal skills.


My Interests

Comic books, novels, films, TV, Scifi, punk, goth, etc.

I'd like to meet:

Buffy, but Sarah Michelle Gellar will do.
Also, anyone who is like-minded. What I mean by that is anyone who is into comic books, art, sci-fi, etc. Basically if you have things in common with the things I mention on my profile.
However, I'm sick and tired of spammers sending me a million add requests a day. "Oh, I moved my profile here because myspace won't let me post naked pics." Yeah... like I'm going to think you're real and not just trying to sell me porn. I love porn as much as the next guy, but I don't want to be spammed about it on myspace! So, in hopes to cut these down, I now require you to know my last name or email when you add me. It should be fairly obvious for real people since my last name is sprinkled all over my profile. Sorry for the inconvenience.
