# About me

I'm a freelance cartoonist/illustrator living here in Weird NJ. I'm a graduate of the Joe Kubert School of Cartoon and Graphic Art. I've done several jobs for the DC Comics licensing department (the coloring books Batman: Swinging Into Action, Superman: Jailbreak! and Krypto the Superdog: Test Pilot Puppy). My work has also been featured on the websites Comic Book Resources, Comics Alliance, i09, Superpunch, The Dork Review, The Mary Sue, and The Aquaman Shrine.

It's mostly angry, incoherent rantings about how Dairy Queen, the Pope and the Far Right have ruined America, but feel free, my friend!

See? Now I can follow you on 3 mediums. ) Twitter, FB and now DA. Ah technology!

Love what I see so far! Pop up some more of that art you have lurking around your office. I know it is there collecting dust...doing no one an ounce of good!

Scan away my friend...scan away!

Much more of this, I may have to get an internet restraining order...

But seriously, Christie, thanks for the support! Uploading stuff here isn't nearly as time-consuming & frustrating as I remember it being a few years ago, so there's more to come!
