Chick a DEE - Dr. Zed Storyboard - Writing

When the editor of Chick-a-DEE thinks of a science guy, he thinks of me. Perhaps it's because I paid attention to all my high school science classes; perhaps it's because the natural world will always be an endless source of fascination for me; perhaps it's because I know how to talk to kids in a way that credits their intelligence rather than assuming their ignorance. Either way, here's a storyboard I made for Chick-a-DEE in collaboration with the previously mentioned editor.

Snowball Earth - Writing



One of the highlights of creating each issue of Kayak, was the writing of its feature comic Snowball Earth, brought to life by the incredible talent of Kagan Mcleod. It was a fantastic combination of actual history, Norse mythology, controversial theory and a good deal of monster battling.
Although I could have kept this story running for years to come, the History Society wanted a comic that didn't need as much prior knowledge. So, once I wrapped this up with our heroes saving the world, I gave them the Card Shop, illustrated by John Martz.

As with all children, these characters have grown up and moved on to different things … like TVO for instance.
