ABOUT


I fell in love with the comic book medium at a very young age and started drawing comics before I could read, (mostly about my favorite superheroes and muppets teaming up for epic quests). In my teenage years, I began creating my own characters and worlds, and now, hundreds of characters and dozens of universes later, I’m still at it, and very excited to share them with you through my own small publishing house, Hangman Comics, as well as through the other publishers I've had the pleasure of working with. 

A few highlights of my creative career in comics include the Official 1997 Canada Games Souvenir Comic Book, designing the costume for, and co-creating the third incarnation of Captain Canuck for Comely Comics, creating and writing “Honor of the Damned” for Americanime Productions, writing/co-illustrating the “Ghost-Woman” anthology story (as well as illustrating the front cover) for Cloudscape Comic’s Joe Shuster Gene Day award-winning “Epic Canadiana” #2, and writing and illustrating “Calavera the Undead” and "Monsterella" for Hangman Comics.

DIO Albums review for ABSOLUTE UNDERGROUND magazine

Holy Diver! Check out a review I wrote for the new DIO album remasters in  Absolute Underground Magazine , the coolest metal/horror/tattoo mag in Canada! http://absoluteunderground.tv/au-magazine/volume-16/item/452-au-vol-16%E2%80%934-issue-94 Ronnie James Dio requires no introduction in the realms of rock 'n roll and metal, but if he did, it would be as one of the most influential and revered singer/songwriters in heavy metal history.    To commemorate the tenth anniversary of his most unfortunate passing, BMG Records have reissued and remastered DIO's long out-of-print 1996-2004 studio albums – 1996’s "Angry Machines", 2000’s "Magica", 2002’s "Killing the Dragon" and 2004’s "Master of the Moon".  To sum up Ronnie James Dio's musical legacy with any brevity is not a simple task, but I'll attempt a "coles notes" version.  In 1975 Dio, along with guitarist/songwriter, Ritchie Blackmore (formerly of De...

In the tradition of the horror host, Dizzy spins multiple tales of terror, but unlike the many masters of the macabre that came before her, Dizzy tends to be a little more...INVOLVED in her work!
