James L. Richardson

James L. Richardson writes bold, cinematic adventures that drag pulp heroes, lost empires, and impossible science into the light of modern storytelling. A Canadian author and founder of Public Domain Super Heroes, he builds connected worlds that blend history, myth, and rebellion—from anti-imperialist fantasy epics like The Ease of Taking to postwar noir tales such as Dr. Satan and the Element of Evil. A lifelong comics and history obsessive, Richardson crafts stories that ask what heroism looks like when the world itself is the villain. When not writing, he designs covers, builds worlds, and drinks too much coffee in Prescott, Ontario.
