Comic Lounge Team

Ryan
Hey guys!!! Ryan here. The guys around here call me the fearless leader, on account of the fact that I started this little site.
I've been collecting comics since I was 5 years old and I'm 32 now. Which means I've been a comic fiend for 27 years. Ever since my mom bought me Flash #82 by Mark Waid, I was in love.
I started this site to share my passion with the world. Along the way Iv'e been able to interview some of my favorite creators. It's been a dream come true.
Recently I've been able to add these amazing people to the site. Each and every one of them brings a unique view on comics. In a short period of time these guys and gals have become great friends.
Stay tuned, cuz we're just getting started.

Genevieve
Gen is a 20 something years old French-Canadian living in Montreal who has always loved comics as far as she can remember. Her preferences lean towards crime and horror stories such as Hellboy, a series she collects assiduously. She dedicates her undying love for Indie Comics publishers like Image Comics. She is an avid buyer of trades but will also sometimes purchase issues for their pretty cover. More than reviewing comics, she loves to ask herself existential and groundbreaking questions such as why is the sky blue? Or why are comics so good? Her subjects of predilections are inclusivity, controversy, amazing characters, and awesome stories.

Dylan
Peace, True Believers! Dylan here. A little about me: I’ve been an adamant comic fan since the early 90’s (yeah, I’m old.) The X-Men animated series is pretty much what started it all for me. That glorious show opened the flood gates for me. I grew up hanging around kids older than me so they introduced me to the world of actual comics. My first full story I read was “A Death in the Family.” So there I was, 7 years old, reading about a death of the second Robin. From then on I was hooked. I became one of the youngest regulars at the local comic shop, Golden Apple on Melrose. I built a reputation and managed to convince them to sell me my first #1 comic, SPAWN. It was great. I became totally immersed and ran with it all the way into my adult life. Now, years later I find myself telling everyone about the comics I read. I love doing it. To me, almost every story i read has something to offer. Whether it be superheroes, science fiction, fantasy, horror or crime related, i share it all. And with The Comic Lounge I hope to continue to do so on a larger scale and not just with comics. I want share my love for hip-hop, art, and almost every aspect of pop culture.
