Griffin Sheridan Bio:
Griffin Sheridan has spent his entire life in comic shops across Michigan, where he was born and raised. For over a decade, Sheridan was an active voice in comics discourse through numerous podcasting endeavours, including projects featuring creators such as Ryan Stegman, Donny Cates, Matthew Rosenberg, and Brian Michael Bendis. His love for the medium finally came full circle in 2023, with the launch of his debut series: KILL YOUR DARLINGS from Image Comics. He is perpetually making coffee, quoting Spider-Man (2002), and working on “the next thing” with his writing partner, Ethan S. Parker. He hopes you’re having a nice day.

Bob Quinn Bio:
After 12 years of video game development for companies like Disney, THQ, Activision, Bob Quinn left for comic book creation. Since then he’s drawn comic books for publishers like Marvel and Dynamite, drawn and written self-published work just for him, and drawn pictures for major studios. He currently is creating Kill Your Darlings for Image Comics.
Bob Fingerman Bio:
Internationally published and critically acclaimed cartoonist, illustrator and author, Bob Fingerman, is best known for his cult comic series Minimum Wage, the series that racked up critical accolades and a devoted following, numbering among its fans Patton Oswalt, Marc Maron, Dana Gould, Scott Aukerman, Margaret Cho, Janeane Garofalo and David Cross. Why? Because each page boasted sticky, uncomfortable truths drenched in bleakly familiar humor. It was “cringe comedy” before the phrase had been coined. In 2018 he realized his childhood dream to become one of MAD’s “usual gang of idiots.” Alas, MAD was soon thereafter essentially euthanatized. Bob accepts only partial blame for that. His latest books are the comical graphic novel Dotty’s Inferno (Heavy Metal/Virus) and the radically revised “author’s edition” of his novel Pariah, now Pariah Redux. He can be followed on Instagram (bobfingerman), where he shares art nearly daily, and Twitter (@BobFingerman).
Clients include Dark Horse Comics, Fantagraphics Books, DC Comics, Marvel, IDW, Image Comics, Tor, Les Humanoïdes Associés, Fluide Glacial, Tapages Nocturnes, Sony/Columbia Pictures, RiffTrax, Heavy Metal and Z2 Comics.
