Brodie H. Brockie is the co-founder and current head writer of the long-running comedy site, Cap'n Wacky's Boatload of Fun. His writing has also appeared in Myspace/Dark Horse Presents Vol. 1, McSweeney's Created in Darkness by Troubled Americans, and on thecitydesk.net. Brodie also runs worldfamousjunglecruise.com, a tribute to the Disney attraction, because apparently being a comic book nerd isn't embarrassing enough. Brodie has launched the Fantastic Four's headquarters into space six times.
Ed Hawkins is a veteran, and a misanthropic drunk. He believes he is the Emperor of the Moon. His digestive system is uniquely suited to extracting nutrients from gravel and corned beef. Voluntarily imprisoned in the Sierra Nevada Mountains until manticores and unicorns settle their decades long battle for supremacy, Ed bides his time as the writer of Roninspoon Theater; a webcomic that has won no awards, and has virtually no readers.
Leonard Pierce is a freelance writer who has been condemned to exile in South Texas for his many sins. He regularly reviews comics for the Onion's AV Club, and between drinks, he jabbers about other topics for your least favorite magazines. Someday he will have a funnybook published, and then you'll all be sorry.
Matthew Rossi may or may not have crawled out of the primordial muck in an inhuman form to spread dissonance and horror among the fledgling society of the Trilobite Empire. It's fairly certain that he wrote a book called Things That Never Were which you can buy from Monkeybrain Books and that he currently lives in Edmonton with his lovely wife, writing stuff about video games. There are sadly no trilobites involved. He's not working on any comic books because no one is stupid enough to let him.
Austin Swinburn is a mischievious fifth dimensional imp, or possibly a big fat dude with a tiny hat he got from a bottle of gin. He attended Lone Star State Cow College for much longer than neccessary to attain a degree in scribbling and coloring in. It would be nice to say that this led to making a living by scribbling and coloring in, but life is full of disappointment. If you want him to scribble and color in for you, it will probably be cheap. In the meantime, he is constantly being tricked into saying "nrubniws nitsua" if he starts stirring up trouble and therefore continues to eke out a miserable existence shuffling papers and pushing buttons in a gargantuan cubicle farm.
RJ White read comic-books for a long time as a child, even clearing one shop in Lansing MI out of their dollar bin stock of Richie Rich (these are currently in a landfill, moldering). Then, he stopped. Then, to his eternal regret, he began reading comic-books again. Then, to his even more eternaler regret, he started reading Web sites about comics on the internet. RJ hosts the Wasted Words podcast while drinking and edits The City Desk, sometimes also while drinking. He sat through Daredevil for your sins.
Calamity Jon Morris is a Washington-based cartoonist, creator of the comic Jeremy: Just Turned Nine and two-fisted king of the hobos. Much of his other comic-related writing can be found at Gone & Forgotten, and he shows off his own artwork at Calamity Jon Save Us! He is a blend of thirteen unfortunate herbs and terrible spices.
