Interests

  • General

    I enjoy writing, drawing and self publishing Comic books and comic strips along with my beautiful and talented wife who does the same. I sometimes enjoy reading comic books particulaly self-published material.Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting I love doodling in my sketchbook. I do cartoon voices and impressions for fun but would love to do them for a living someday. I'm told that I'm pretty good. I love playing old-school video games and am obsessed with Pac-man. I collect GI Joe A Real American Hero figures both classic and new as well as some Transformers stuff. I'd enjoy travelling if we had money. I'd love to visit Ireland, Japan, New Zealand, England, Scotland, and Hawaii. I'm still fascinated by 80's culture even though I grew up in it.Image hosting by Photobucket

  • Music

    Punk, Emo, Underground Hip Hop, Old school hip-hop, Heavy Metal, Rock, 70's, 80's, 90's, Old Country, Blues, Jazz, and pretty much about anything.

  • Movies

    I love cartoons and animation. Particularly sick and twisted stuff like Ren & Stimpy, Invader Zim or Adult Swim. Love the Anime' (Project A-Ko, Vampire Hunter D, Bleach, Chrono Crusade, Catgirl Nuku Nuku, Ikkitousen, Mezzo, Trigun, Ranma 1/2, Akira, Cowboy Bebop, Evangelion, Full Metal Alchemist, Full Metal Panic, Chobits, Noir, Gunslinger Girl, Avatar:the last Air Bender etc...).

The list is huge.

  • Television

    I mostly watch Cartoons like the stuff on Adult Swim. Catscratch. I also dig Rescue Me, COPs and CSI. But mostly TV is bad....it distracts me from getting any drawing done and that isn't good. Besides, Network television is a cesspool of crap and vomit with it's reality TV, idiotic dramas and pre-processed sit-coms. I think THE OFFICE sucks turd.

  • Books

    The Bible...inspired by GOD...great read. Mostly I read comic books and Comic book TPB's: Anything By Doug TenNapel (Tommysaurus Rex, Monster Zoo, Flink), SCUD the Disposable Assassin, 100 Bullets, old school Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Starman, Powers, Bear, Mouse Guard. Manga: Deathnote, Bleach
