I was born March 4, 1981, in Garland. I’ve lived in Mesquite my whole life and graduated from Poteet High School.

Now that that’s out of the way…

I like to think that I have led an interesting life. As a child, I developed a fascination with comic books. It was this juvenile pursuit which served to lay the basic foundation of my character: the need to see justice upheld. Seeing as I’m not a billionaire and there is not a single irradiated spider to be found, the only weapon I was left to consider was ink.

I know what you’re thinking, “Why don’t you just become a cop or a lawyer?”

To which I’ll answer: Who do you think keeps them in line?

I write news. I make films. I like sandwiches. I’m a really head-strong guy, dedicated in my ideals.

And I watch the watchmen.
