About me:
I'm a freelance comic book writer. My first comic book, a four part series called ArchEnemies, came out in 2006 and was collected in trade in 2007. It's the story of a superhero and a supervillain who don't realize that they're roommates in their secret identities.Check it out:
Are you poor? If you search around, I'm told you can find copies of the trade online for as little as 40 cents!
Here's a trailer for the graphic novel:
If it seems like I'm skimping on details here, it's only because I've got a whole website to look after at DrewMelbourne.com.
Who I'd like to meet:
Whoever. One of the fictional characters from my comic has over 800 friends, so I'm cool with only knowing four people.Details

Happy Birthday! How old are you now, 21, 25? ;)
Is...is it bad we're only a week into July and I already miss the daily updates to your blog?
I thought it might be.
(On a mildly related note: Stop being brilliant, curse you, you're making me look bad.)
Hi!
Thanks for the add!!
Have a nice day!
Lorenzo
Hope you had a fantabulous, if late, birthday, Drew! Oh wait, it's not your birthday that was late -- it's me remembering it!
Happy Slightly Belated Birthday, my good man! In honor of the occasion, enjoy this classic birthday-themed Spider-Man panel, in which Gwen Stacy makes three completely inappropriate pop-culture references all at the same time.

Happy Birthday Drew!!!
