Once upon a time there were two college friends who thought they could put together a comic book.
It perished miserably.
Although the pages still remain, coffee-stained as they are, it was probably a pipe dream at best considering our age and the time we had to devote to it. Years later, those two guys said "Hey, we ought to try that again" and so the site was born.
The origin of the comic itself predates either of these times, but varying incarnations have been explored over the years. That it has been kept alive at all this long is a sure indicator to both of us that this is truly a story worth telling.
Dan grew up in a small town, but knew he didn't want to end up there. An avid reader since age 3, he cut his teeth on C.S. Lewis' Narnia series and went on to devour the works of Anne McCaffrey and Julian May over Emily Dickinson and William Faulkner. Nearly all his life he's drawn -- with varying success, depending on the realism required -- and been a fan of many comic book series over the years.
Graduating college with degrees in art and English (where he caught up with plenty of Dickinson and Faulkner), Dan spent years in advertising and ran his own graphics business before getting swept up by a large corporation to deal with the more technical side of working with computers (fortunately, Macs). Throughout it all, he's kept his creativity flowing not only through his drawings and stories, but also through his trademark witty banter that holds up to even the most devout Monty Pyton followers. He still does graphic design and computer tech work -- as long as they don't interfere with his achievements in World of Warcraft.
Greg's an Air Force brat who's lived in many states and a few countries. At a very young age his parents proclaimed he'd have no artistic inclinations whatsoever. In spite of the world already rallying against him, he picked up his crayons and kept coloring.
Before he was in double digits he was a professional musician, before he graduated high school he'd won statewide art competitions, been accepted to summer visual art academic programs and was professionally designing logos. Shortly after graduating school with a degree in design, he accepted a professional graphic design position where he continues to work and does freelance work when he's not at his day job. His parents still contend he has no ability and will amount to nothing.
