Overview

Inspired by the short stories of Ray Bradbury and the Warren magazines, and a love "B-movies", Jesse Thomas hoped to give the stability of having the same illustrator and writer to his comic readers with the creation of his own series, entitled Night Craft. Each issue features new characters and stories, often with a twist ending. These evolving short story vignettes give the reader a palpable mix of horror and science fiction that leaves fans satisfied, yet excited about what will come next.

About the Author

Dr. Who, Star Wars, and Robotech were early influences of fanciful storytelling for Night Craft creator, Jesse Thomas. Jesse subconsciously realized at a young age that he preferred comics, such as Larry Hama's G.I. Joe, that had the same writer, in contrast to a series that changed writers inconsistently. Perhaps moving from Libya to England, and then eventually to the US as a kid, gave him this desire for consistency. He cites creator-driven comics such as Cerebus, Calvin & Hobbes, Silent Mobius, and Strangers in Paradise as inspiration. Jesse has also shared his talents working as the artist on Hellbound Media's Dawn After Dark, on Puddle Knob Publishing's Karentha Chronicles, and on JK Barber's, Battle for Snowhaven.
