| Introduction | Tad P. has been writing and producing comics in Australia since the early 80's - starting with 'The Dynamic Dark Nebula' Graphic Novel in '82. He hooked up with the 'Cyclone' crew and continued to write the adventures of 'The Dark Nebula' and his other creation, 'The Golden Age Southern Cross', along with co-creator Glenn Lumsden. After an apprenticeship in Cyclone, The Dark Nebula returned to his own on-going title which became something of a cult-favorite in the late 80's / early 90's. His chief writing influences are Roy Thomas and Chris Claremont, his artistic influences include Steve Ditko and Jim Starlin. Separate to writing comics he has been an accomplished Radio Broadcaster over a 21 year period. He's recently taken a break from that to focus on his first love, writing and publishing comics, but this time on the worldwide web where a broader distribution is not only possible, but feasible. |
