Cereal Savages - Joe Simko

Descriere

JOE SIMKO is currently the lead artist and writer of Garbage Pail Kids for the Topps company, as well as the co-creator of Craniacs. After graduating from the School of Visual Arts in New York, Simko worked as a full-time storyboard illustrator at GEM Studio, where he created countless storyboards for nationally aired television commercials throughout the early 2000s. Eventually, Joe began freelancing after hours from his storyboard job, designing show posters for local rock and punk bands in the city. These posters gained him enough exposure to lead to work designing artwork for acts such as Metallica, the Misfits, and many others--including serving as the main art designer for the Vans Warped Tour in 2006. In 2009, Simko began designing artwork for the Garbage Pail Kids and Wacky Packages brands for Topps. Joe found his true '80s-inspired passions through his own creations, such as Craniacs and now Cereal Savages. Joe lives in New York City with his wife, June, his son, Zy, and many, many boxes of cereal. His favorite cereal is Frankenberry. nHANS RODIONOFF is an accomplished writer known for his dynamic range of work across film, television, and comic books. With a knack for blending horror, humor, and pop culture, Rodionoff has built a career crafting offbeat and imaginative stories that resonate with fans of all ages.

Goldberg to co-create Garbage Pail Kids: Origins for Dynamite Comics--a hilariously twisted take on the classic trading card brand that reimagines the infamous kids as mutant antiheroes in a gloriously bizarre origin story.
