Yet another place for me on the web. I'm Elin Winkler and I've been working in comics since I was 19 years old. I managed a comic retail store for three years, then moved into bookstore retail while I moonlighted as a lowly copy editor at Antarctic Press. I moved up to edit the funny animal and manga lines there, also handling manga rewrite for almost all the translated manga they published. When they reorganized the company in 1996, I was let go ("terminated" is a nice way to say it, "fired" is a not so nice way to say it) and given two of the books I worked on as part of my severance package. With these two titles (Furrlough and Genus), I started Radio Comix with my partner. 2007 will mark the tenth anniversary of the company and it's been quite a ride so far. (More like a twenty story drop on a rollercoaster, at least that's how it feels to my stomach sometimes...) Furrlough recently celebrated its fifteenth anniversary, and Genus is currently the longest running adults only comic in the U.S. Over the years, I have also done freelance manga rewrite for Dark Horse/Studio Proteus (various Super Manga Blast titles) and DMP Manga (various yaoi manga titles).

Comics I've written: Tales of the Fehnnik, short stories for Furrlough and Genus
Manga I've done rewrite on: Change Commander Goku, F-III Bandit, Fantastic Panic, Amazing Strip, Stainless Steel Armadillo, Amazing Adventures of Professor Jones, Silbuster, Vampire Miyu, Dark Tales of Daily Horror, Dodekain, Masked Warrior X, Hurricane Girls, Gojin, Golden Warrior Iczer One, Magical Mates, Battle Binder Plus, Vanity Angel, Gorgon, Mechanical Man Blues, Alice in Lostworld, Luck of the Draw, Wild Zoo, Astrider Hugo, What's Michael, 3x3 Eyes, Dear Myself, Hybrid Child, and Clan of the Nakagamis

I work literally almost every minute I am awake. I am also very small, very sarcastic and rather shy. I keep a Livejournal where I document things at this link.

The (tragically infrequently updated) Radio Comix website is here.

The (always updated super fast) Radio Comix online store is here. (caution: may not be work safe, though we try to keep it that way)

Hee hee, actually one of the artists on our site is working on a superhero porn comic, to be called "Ultraflesh" (copyright JK Blacklin). We're still making the promo material though, so we haven't announced it yet. He's got a lot on his plate and doesn't want to start updating with it until he has a good backlog of pages finished. (So responsible! Aww!)

JK does *ahem* good work!

I'll pre-order right NOW LOL!! But shhh! Don't distract him!

Hey, I just wanted to say thanks for the bonus comic that I got with my stuff in the mail. You rock. Not in a stationary, cold,dirty, build-a-bridge-out-of-you way, but a pyrotechnic, leather, jamming, our-speakers-go-up-to-eleven kind of way.

Hi Elin, Thanks for the add. I interviewed with you guys back when I lived in San Antonio, back in the day. Keep up the good work.

Are you thinking of Antarctic Press when you mention getting interviewed? I'm a bit confused, since Radio Comix has never conducted any interviews... just trying to place the name in my (rather faulty) memory. ^_^

Remove[ Posted by SWAT on Jan 5th, 2007 12:51 PM ]...

LOL, yeah sorry about that. I was speaking of Antartic Press. I walked into the offices one day, portfolio in hand, and a few looked through my work. I didn't and still don't draw manga but one of the editors said they had a superhero title that would fit my style and he wanted me to return the following week. I was in the Army at the time and two days later was relocated outside the states and that was that, lol. Just wanted to share the story with you. Hope you have a great 2007. Stay in touch.

"very small, very sarcastic and rather shy ..." are you sure you're from Texas and not somewhere in the UK?! Thanks for the add, Elin. Hope you can find something at my website that appeals!

Ha! We have sarcasm in Texas, it's just very few people actually get it. ^_~

I don't get to rock my Mohican as much as I would like to, since even though I work in comics, I often have to have day jobs. (Working in indy comics is kind of like having a local band... you probably will never get famous or rich, but you can have fun doing it.) It's kind of a weird two-tone right now, it's in desperate need of re-dying. -_-; I blame the holidays and deadlines.
