About me:

!!! A QUICK APOLOGY TO THOSE TRYING TO CONTACT ME !!!

I have been busier than ever and at the same time receiving more letters than ever before and I just can't keep up. I'm going to try and get back to the stack in my mailbox right now, but please understand, from now on, unless you've written something that really needs or deserves a response, consider my response a resounding, "Thanks a lot for writing and I hope you enjoy what I'm working on!" Thanks for understanding. Yours truly - Jesse Blaze Snider

Now on to my "About Me..."

I believe that what you do, defines you. So I guess this is me...

I am finally after years of trying to be...a professional COMIC BOOK WRITER! Last year saw the publication of a story I wrote for MARVEL COMICS featuring their character DEADPOOL in Marvel Comics Presents #10 and this year I have a six-issue mini-series coming out from DC COMICS on APRIL 1ST called DEAD ROMEO! It's a vampire romance, a cross between "The Crow" and "The Princess Bride." A gothic fairy tale that proves, not every love story has a happy ending. Check out the first issue cover...


I also wrote a one-shot for Marvel starring THE INCREDIBLE HULK! Hopefully, that will be released this year as well! I'm beyond excited, I've been working on breaking into comics for 8 years now and I have finally crossed the finish line. Now, it's time to kick some ass! Also last year the first issue to a four-issue prequel to the motion picture DEE SNIDER'S STRANGELAND saw print, the remaining issues of which will be available to read online later this year.

I am a Voice Actor. I am currently the voice of a few major companies including Gamestop! (Which is really cool, cause I used to work for a Gamestop making minimum wage!) I have decided to not mention the names of the other companies, just in case they don't want my name associated with there family friendly products. =( I have also done many voices for various radio and TV commercials and promos, one of which ran during the SUPER BOWL! I posted a particularly funny commercial I did for Burger King below. I'm the voice of the rooster who says, "Maybe I do."

..

I am probably best know for being a singer and song writer for/with the band BAPTiZED BY FiRE or BXF for short, please listen to our music on our MySpace and you can get to know me better.

And also as a contestant on the show "Rock the Cradle!" Thank you to all of you out there who supported and voted for me, during the filming of the show. I am a NATIONAL CHAMPION Semi-Pro Football Player for the Brooklyn Mariners! I've been on the injured list for the last two seasons, but I plan to return this year.

I am a gymnast. I used to coach gymnastics in my spare time, but now I don't have any. I sometimes do gymnastics on stage at BXF shows depending on the venue and the height of the ceilings. In 2006 I tore my PCL doing back flips on a stage with low ceilings, so I've been a lot more cautious about where I do flips, but if conditions are right, I'll flip up a storm.

I have been a VJ for MTV2, Fuse & AOL Music's Top 11 Countdown.

I have been a DJ for 98.5 the BONE and the World Famous WLIR.

I have appeared on or hosted shows for MTV, VH1, HBO, FUSE and the DISCOVERY CHANNEL.

I've done some acting here and there, most recently in the opening live sequence of the PlayStation2 Video Game "SingStar 80's" with my dad, my brother Shane and my lady Patty!

I was the Music Consultant on the acclaimed soundtrack to the motion picture DEE SNIDER'S STRANGELAND. And what that basically means is I picked every song that went on the sound track. It was pretty much my own personal late 90's metal mix tape, so if you liked it, you've got good taste. =)

Since I also believe that what you would like to do defines you, I guess this is me too...

I would like to be a prolific writer of comic books, until the day that I die, at least 287 years from now, I should think.

I would like to expand my writing into the realm of film, literature and serialized television.

I would like to be the leader of a new ROCK 'N' ROLL RENAISSANCE.

I would love to be a comedian, but unfortunately I'm not quite that funny, I'll have to live vicariously through my brother Shane instead.

I would love to be an actor. Nothing too mind blowing, just an actor in a story worth watching. That'd be cool.

I would love to change the world. Really change it. Help people think more positively, love instead of hate, smile instead of frown, laugh instead of cry, teach the meek how to use their middle fingers, that sort of thing; the kind of wonderful self-righteous anarchy that you get from having the confidence to be who you choose to be and do what you want to do. Of course, I'll have to do this in some sort of sneaky way that makes it all seem a lot more devilish and cool than it really is.

Either way, my hope is that people will enjoy the things I create and respect me for creating them. That's me. That's what I'm about.

'My hope still is to leave the world a little bit better for my having been here.' - Jim Henson
