John Platt doesn't remember a time when comic books weren't in his life, and it's a rare week when he doesn't read at least one graphic novel. John is a freelance writer and marketing consultant, focusing on environmental issues, cutting-edge technology, entrepreneurship, and, yes, cartooning. He writes for Scientific American, Today's Engineer, Green Hands USA, and other publications.

John has published more than 100 short stories and poems in anthologies and magazines around the world. He is also an occasional cartoonist, with several mini-comics, a webcomic, and a few gag panels under his belt.
