I am the creator of Pan-Gea: Seven Arrows- a primal fantasy set in the ancient dreamtime world. I have several other comics including the adventures of Zarp and I also dabble with role-playing game designs and occasionally do RPG illustrations. The first Pan-Gea book is available from Ape Entertainment.

Some detail:

Born 1970, self-published first book 1987 (Fast Lane), first solo series self-published 1994 (Anomalic – yes, I know its not a real word), published comic/role-playing game series Random Order Comics and Games 2001(ish). Many other small ventures in the interims, many collaborations with many great people, member of the United Fanzine Organization (status uncertain?) from 1996(ish) to 2002(ish). First professional foray into comics courtesy Ape Entertainment when they published my primordial fantasy comic Pan-Gea. Involved in several RPG projects from my own designs to illustrations for other games such as Trollbabe, Donjon, and The Shadow of Yesterday.

I do this stuff to pay homage to the Gods of Savagery and Comics whose inimitable avatars include Frank Frazetta, Jack Kirby, Richard Corben, and Vaughn Bode. Long may they rule the infinite plains of Comichalla.

Recently joined into a demonic sketchblog venture with badass artists AP Furtado, Chuck Whelon, and Nate Piekos.

The rest is confidential.

Consider this a shove to finish Red Path. I'm interested in what happens next. I also enjoyed Catharsis.

The Code is clandestine. The Code is ubiquitous. The Code is camaraderie in the trenches of the creative wars. Heh. Howzit going, Mr. Freeman?

Keep to the Code? You have to clarify that for me a bit! ;)

[ Posted by jvwest on Dec 17th, 2006 2:31 PM ]...

Three pages to go and Seven Arrows will be complete (web version, at least)!

Me too. I keep getting up in the morning and looking around but I can't find any new comics! What's up with this West guy, anyway? Heh. Slowly...with infinite patience...the mojo is working.

[ Posted by dembicki on Dec 14th, 2006 9:36 AM ]...

Waiting patiently for the new book! I need my dose of West!
