I’ve loved comics ever since I was a wee child, from my mornings with Calvin and Hobbes to my afternoons with Grandpa, reading the Sunday Funnies together. Eventually, I started collecting Bill Sienkiewicz’s The Shadow comics—It was the art that made them so exciting.



My reading continued, eventually shifting from the physical realm to include a digital one. I relished webcomics, the small ones and the big ones. Hark! a Vagrant made me laugh. Penny Arcade did too.

I devoured the trade paperback versions of Sandman and Lucifer.

Now, it feels good to return a small amount of that art back into the world. I wrote a few stories for this comic anthology, and I’m proud to be included. My work appears alongside more than other 40 artists. Northside Comics put together several issues of an anthology-style comic, and now they’re releasing a compilation of all of them (along with a new, unreleased issue).

This new volume has work in it from Kitty Curran, the person behind Taylor Swift, Girl Detective and My Lady’s Choosing. It also has work in it from Kelly Leigh Miller, who makes It’s All About Me!

I’m a writer, and I got to work with several talented illustrators. My newest comic, Memories from Hell, was drawn by Melissa Kelley, who continues to astound me with her illustrations.
