My name is Ryan Roberts and I have lived in Texas most of my life. I have three great kids and a wonderful wife that supports my love for cartoons and comics. Growing up in the '80s and '90s, I loved watching things like The Ghostbusters - I loved the wacky designs they created for their ghosts. I was always drawing at school when I should have been paying attention to my teachers. All my homework came with doodles in the margins.

From childhood, I always knew I wanted to be an artist (in one form or another). I have worked as a freelance artist for quite some time and in that time I have come up with many stories, jokes, and works of art.

My comics are like my children, in the same way that I DO have a favorite, but it would be unwise for me to say. However, I can say that my characters are wonderfully unique. Grimm has become a favorite among my fans. To me, he has the heart of a warrior and the soul of a slacker.

Coming up with comic ideas can sometimes be the most frustrating part of the process. I try to find inspiration from other comic artists. Or sometimes, it comes from my kids telling really bad jokes.

And as for my art style. I have noticed that both my art style and the format of my color palette has greatly improved. I drew some inspiration from fellow artist JP Ahonen (creator of Belzebubs). His gritty style and simplistic character designs really influenced me.
