His graphic novel “Combustion” was published by Fantagraphics Books, and his comics have appeared in a variety of venues. He is also an essayist and critic whose art criticism has appeared in a variety of online and print publications, including The Believer, HiLobrow.com, the San Francisco Chronicle, Salon Magazine, the Bay Guardian, and the Comics Journal.
