About this title

About the Authors

Mickey George is a writer and illustrator, whose debut graphic novel, The Heart Hunter released from Legendary Comics in August 2021, and is working on her LGBTQ+ steampunk webcomic The King of Trouble. When not writing comics, she works at the library and writes game scripts for visual novel apps. She currently lives in Salt Lake City with two big dogs, and way, way too many books.

Tarun Shanker is a mild-mannered assistant by day and a milder-mannered writer by night, currently living in Boston. His idea of paradise is a place where kung-fu movies are projected on clouds, soul music fills the air and chai flows freely from the fountains. He is the co-author of the These Vicious Masks trilogy with Kelly Zekas.

James F. Wright is a Los Angeles-based writer, reader, and ramen eater. He's been writing comics for a while now, and been reading them for as long as he can remember. James is the co-creator, with Li Buszka, of Legendary Comics' girl-raised-by-a-wolf fable, Lupina. In 2018 he and artist Josh Eckert were nominated for an Eisner and PRISM Award for their self-published one-shot queer, sci-fi romance short, Contact High. That same year, he and artist Rashad Doucet contributed the sci-fi short, "Thrustfall," to Ascend Press's Eisner and Ignatz Award-winning anthology, Elements: Fire, edited by Taneka Stotts and Shing-Yin Khor. In 2020, James and Jackie Crofts completed their five-volume culinary coming-of-age crime saga, Nutmeg. His work has also appeared in the Iron Circus Comix anthologies FTL, Y'all (with Teo DuVall), and You Died (with Jackie Crofts). When he's not writing comics, he enjoys cooking, baking, and going to the movies (when it's safe to do so)

Li Buszka (they/them) is a queer illustrator, comic artist, and courtroom sketch artist based in Indianapolis. Li has contributed art to anthologies Comic Book Slumber Party: Escape From Bitch Mountain and Mine!: a Comics Collaboration to Benefit Planned Parenthood.
