WHO?
G’day. I’m Joe. Thanks for stopping by my portfolio.
I’m an Aussie writer and artist who has been living in the UK since 2016.
My work has appeared on several websites, and I am currently working on my first book, a history of video game company SEGA.
Outside of this, I have worked on several on-line projects, such as originating ChronicleChamber.com, the longest running and most prominent fan site dedicated to the classic comics hero The Phantom. I also created and maintain the Phantom 2040 Archive and am a regular contributor on the PhantomWiki.
I’m a huge geek and collector with a strong love for comics, SEGA and their mascot Sonic the Hedgehog, as well as the fantasy writings of Tolkien, Neil Gaiman, Branden Sanderson and sci-fi such as Ghostbusters, Doctor Who, The Matrix and Back To the Future.

Hitting the Half Way Point!

Follow on Social Media
With the SEGA book going along nicely, I decided to set up some social media profiles to make it a little easier for those interests to follow along with how its coming. While we can all agree that social media is a necessary evil in today’s world, I’ve tried to keep they evil to a…
