D. Bradford Gambles is probably working on a comic right now as you’re reading this. He’s made those darn comics for magazines, anthologies, and even the internet (they don’t let just anyone do that). His first graphic novel, Shred or Dead, was published by Top Shelf in 2025. Rumors are that his mom thought it was pretty good. He lives in Utah with his partner Kade and their roommate Kleo (who is a cat).

Spencer Holt has been making comics for fun and profit for most of his life, many of which have also been in magazines, anthologies, and even the internet. He lives in Utah as well, but has way more cats than Brady. His wife Marque and children Hendrik and Lily are very proud of him.
