Mario, a native of San Francisco, was born "in the year of our lord nineteen hundred seventy nine"(H. Thompson). At the tender age of three months, he was
whisked away from the shores of the shores of the Bay Area and spent the next four years & change in the third world paradise known as Managua, Nicaragua. He also spent a year in Lima, Peru before returning to the City. The next few years were spent in several institutions, including Long Fellow Elementary, Epiphany School, Archbishop Riordan High School, Academy of Art University, and City College of San Francisco. Mario currently lives in the
Lakeview district of San Francisco and is pursuing a career as a writer. When asked to name a few artistic influences, Mario was quoted as saying: "Fuck, that
shit'll take forever. Ask me later man".
Cristian grew up in the foggy city of San Francisco watching and loving Disney cartoons,
particularly The Three Caballeros, Disney's the Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad, The Lonesome Ghosts, and many more. He always loved the idea of drawing and creating characters and stories, but he never had the guts to even start drawing 'til middle school. He stopped drawing in High School, until he finally took another drawing class in his senior year, rekindling his passion for the art. He ended up graduating from the Academy of Art University with a Bachelors in Illustration in 2007.
His favorite Illustrators include: Brian
Froud, Justin Sweet, Peter
de Seve, Claire
Wendling, Craig Mullins, Carlos
Huantes, and many more.
His favorite comic artist include: John
Romita Jr., and Ariel Olivette.
Angelica is a History major at San Francisco State University focusing on "modern" European history. She hopes to get a Masters in Library Studies and work in an Archive someday. She is also a follower of
lolita fashion, and an avid reader. She has ridden horses her whole life, never skips a chance to go to a
museum, and have a lust for travel. Angelica believes that butter makes
everything better and that meat and bread are the two most important food groups.
That's us! Tune in next week to see what we have in store for you!
