Stephen Lindsay is a 30-year-old married father of two. He lives in Rochester, NY and works as an Art Director for a small marketing firm.

"I've really always been interested in comics, typically gravitating more toward the darker, edgier stuff," Stephen said.

Stephen is just beginning his professional career in comics, "But as long as I can tell stories that find their way in front of people, and some people dig them, then I'm happy." he said.
