Matthew Rosenberg was born and raised in New York City. The son, nephew, and brother of writers, he naturally spent the first 10 years of his professional life trying to avoid the same fate as them. After years of directing music videos, managing a print shop, touring the world managing bands, working at a comic shop, and co-owning a small indie record label, the fates have finally left him two choices; write comics professionally or starve to death trying. Armed only with his freakish knowledge of all things comic book and a complete lack of desire to do anything else, Matthew now finds himself a comic writer. Frank Tieri writes stuff. Like video games. And animation. And comics. But mostly just threatening letters. MICHAEL WALSH was born and raised in Ontario, Canada. After graduating from the Ontario College of Art and Design with a bachelors degree in illustration he primarily worked in graphic design and advertising illustration.
