Woo, new Sennheisers! I love these headphones already; I have the clickety-clackest of keyboards, and I can’t even hear the keypresses used to make this post.

Oh god. Rainymood.

Going on camera for possibly my final TV spot of my university career. This shirt is pretty much the only one I have that looks decent in-studio.

I like how I look today.

School: One month to go at Ryerson. Bachelor of Journalism, here I come.

Side Projects: League of Legends play-by-play for Smite Club. Architecture/signage photoblog at Toronto Type. Nerd columns for Nerd Girl Pin Ups.
Ideas: Comic book titled “NTO”. Comic blog/vlog series called “ComicsMatt.com”

NTO: Heavily influenced by Brian Wood’s DMZ, NTO takes part in the near future, where cities have become densely-packed, apartment-heavy skyscrapers. Telling the story of one man’s climb from the depth of the city’s Bowels to the upper echelons of Halla, it chronicles ambition, loss, sacrifice and an attachment to humanity. Pseudo-sci-fi without delving into Cyberpunk. Inspiration for art style can be found here.
Status: Looking for an artist and finishing a concrete pitch. Will pay. Serious about this turning into a webcomic/print combo.

ComicsMatt: Partly inspired by Heidi MacDonald’s The Beat, DC Women Kicking Ass and my own recent departure from ComicVine, ComicsMatt is an idea for a comics/nerd blog and personal brand site based on my interests and passion. Columns, vlogs, reviews and interviews.
Status: Tumblr seized, but not fully conceptualized.

Interests: Comic books, hip-hop, making music on my iPad and Ableton. League of Legends, Mass Effect, web comics and journalism. Podcasts. Pro wrestling. Sleep, stir fry and shadowboxing. Cartoons and kung-fu movies.
