Zack Finfrock/"Splashed-Ink"Zack was born near a vat of aging cheddar cheese, in the rolling dairy hills of Wisconsin. At an early age he displayed an aptitude for the graphic arts. His parents still tell the tale of his first foray into the artistic world, when he fashioned a drawing instrument out of a fecal encrusted diaper and drew caveman-like images on the side of is crib. While his tools have changed and his technique has improved, they’re still fairly sure his hygiene has not. Zack moved to the sunny state of Florida in his latter teen years where he met two people that would change his life forever. Thankfully the priest and scout leader were arrested and convicted for those acts and Zack went on to meet Jon and Dan. Not many people can say they do what they want for a living, and even fewer can say they are doing what they dreamed of. Well, this guy managed to do it and is pretty happy right now. Zack is one of the lucky ones. He gets to draw and play video games for a living. The pay structure of a freelance artist has led Zack to discover all sorts of new gaming too, such as Rent Money Hunting, Gas Money Hunting, Game Money Hunting, Food Money Hunting, and Car Insurance Money Hunting. Zack has a pretty good life right now, and as long as you don’t mention the lack of girlfriend he’s mostly non-suicidal. |
Jon Sugrue/"Pazzolupo"Nature finally provided the answer to the age old question “what do you get when you cross a Columbian Drug Cartel with the cast of Revenge of the Nerds?” when it came up with this guy. An anachronism embroiled in an enigma, stuffed into a quandary, and bitch slapped down into a pit of Buddhist calm. That’s how most people tend to describe Jon, and with good reason. He has an overabundance of energy that is constantly channeled into a complete calm. Sound impossible? Watch the guy play a game. It’s almost inhuman the way he can take his ADD level hyperactivity and glue his ass to a chair to play an MMO for 14 hours straight. Jon is currently seeking out his Columbian heritage by starting a life dealing drugs. OK, so he’s working in a pharmacy, but it’s basically the same thing. Jon is one of those people with an overabundance of talent, intelligence, and good fortune. He can play multiple musical instruments at expert level, play music by ear, read quantum theory without ever uttering “Huh?”, and he’s married to an incredible gal that is WAY out of his league. If it weren’t for the fact that he’s bat-s#!^ crazy, he’d have nothing to do with the other creators here. |
Dan Cooley/"Delquixote"Dan shouldn’t exist. At least that’s what his mother always told him. Dan grew up on the gold covered streets of St. Louis, Mo and if you don’t believe it, just listen to him talk for 30-45 seconds. His constant droning about his home town makes him sound like some refugee longing for his homeland, and how all great things in life came from there. He’s the oldest of the creative crew, now being officially into the third decade of his life and he sees it as his responsibility to guide the others into the pitfalls and hurdles of life. Yes, you read that right. Dan takes a great deal of pleasure in watching his younger counterparts experience the same pains and humiliations he has, at times engineering situations for them to happen. Dan is not an especially nice guy. Dan is a career “Job Specialist”. That meaning that he considers whatever he happens to be doing at the current moment to be his specialty. He fancies himself a writer, and as long as people keep coming to this website he’ll still be able to tell people he is. A long time fan of Comics, Sc-Fi, and all things geekly, Dan has been fortunate enough to find himself among a pretty great group of people here. As mean and surly as he can be, Dan is proud of the people currently in his life, from his co-creators here, to his family and friends back home, to his amazingly beautiful and talented wife, Dan has got things going pretty good. |
