Nathan Stryker

Nathan Alan Stryker was born to a farmer and a beach bum on a stormy February in the armpit of California. Though his house was made of drafting pens, he would often find himself rejecting the t-square and creating crude, duckish forms. Never learning to recognize which ideas should not be carried to fruition, peer pressure drove him to begin drawing comics, some of which (Buff Idiot and Smarty Nerd, Fowl Life) make him feel pride. He currently lives in Ventura where he and his lifemate have twice successfully passed on their genetic code.
