Welcome back to my week long look at Semantink’s new web-comic, THE UNDERGROUNDS. In the past few days we have all gotten a chance to meet several of the characters from THE UNDERGROUNDS by way of their Monster Match profiles. Monday we got to meet Dracula, yesterday we were introduced to Frank, and today we get to become acquainted with the Wolfman:

Now, I also promised a little more information about the talented people working on THE UNDERGROUNDS, and since I am no liar,  today I want to give you all a little information about two of the fabulous writers working on this project, Joe Pezzula and James Ninness.

Joe Pezzula got his BA in English from the University of Albany, then went on to get his MFA in scriptwriting from Chapman University. Joe has mainly worked up in Hollywood the last few years, but has decided to take his first shot in the field of comics with THE UNDERGROUNDS. If you want to read some of Joe’s short stories, you can find them here. Joe also loves pie and homemade meatballs. Don’t get between Joe and his meatballs.

James Ninness is a name that you have heard of if you visit this site often. James received his BA in English: Creative Writing from Cal State Long Beach, and is also the writer of Semantink’s inaugural title, MYTHOI. However, no one project can keep James occupied, so he got involved with THE UNDERGROUNDS (not to mention a great deal of other projects I am not at liberty to talk about). If you want to check out James’ work on MYTHOI, you can read several issues for free here or if you want to check out some more of his musings, you can check out his blog, The Word Ride.On a more personal note, James likes sushi eaten off of brightly colored midgets.

Check back tomorrow for more on THE UNDERGROUNDS, and if you missed out on meeting Dracula or Frank, fear not I’ve put links in just below.
