Here are some thoughts I have about why I don't like reading some comics that are out there.

Garanos is journeying to find the whereabouts of her fiance, who was kidnapped by mercenaries shortly before their wedding. When she made a stop in the small village of Kaigan during her search, she became possessed by a vindictive demon known as the Harbinger, which was hidden deep underground. With help, she managed to purge the demon from her body, but not before it left it''s mark; the scars on her arms and back.

Alex hails from Ohio, where she got a BFA in Art & Technology from Ohio State University. She's been pursuing the fine craft of drawing since childhood, but got serious about it in 1998, when she found out she liked both writing and illustrating the stories she came up with when not paying attention in class. Alex started her webcomic career in 2005 with a gag comic called Jigworthy, then began Garanos in 2006. During her course of study at OSU, she produced 6 more comics (all short-form stories) with four of those being 24 Hour Comics she completed during her final term.
4’10” tall extroverted introvert. She would describe herself a shy nerd but she’s really quite friendly and craves social attention. She feels most in her element when working with ancient artifacts but she still gets sucked into cheesy movies and loves 80’s music. She can be a bit of a snob when it comes to certain things like audio gear and food but she remains humble around her friends. She doesn’t want to believe in the supernatural and has no problem working in the museum late at night by herself but yet she loves being scared by a good ghost story.

Paul began drawing at the awkward age of three and much later discovered the art of visual story telling through his love of movies. Not having grown up around comic books, it was this desire to tell a story in a graphic format that always brewed in the back of his mind. No less of a nerd than his own creations, Paul studied Art History and Photography in college and yet, threw that all aside to take up the noble art of comic creator. This actually wasn’t all as sudden as all of that, but that’s another story for another time. When not working on his comic, Paul can be seen running errands around town with his toddler son or playing at one of the many neighborhood parks.'
