Jon Clark is a comic book artist, writer, and filmmaker. Currently clawing through the comic book stands is his latest tale of darkness, PLAYTHINGS. A recent best-selling title from Black Caravan/Scout is BLACK FRIDAY, as ominous as it sounds, and the twisted tale SOMETHING JUICY is about to hit the stands.

Jon’s graphic novel, THIN, was winner of the Famous Monsters Silver Scream Fest Award for Best Graphic Novel, and was published by American Gothic Press, as is the horror series HAG. Jon’s hobbies include breeding carnivorous fish and doing warped pinhole photography.

You can meet Jon, and the rest of the Scout Comics crew, at Geek'd Con this August.
