Sean Michael ROBINSON (Discards, forthcoming) is a writer, illustrator, musician, and former high school art teacher, as well as a man-about-town. In his brief time as an adult human he’s drawn hundreds of pages of comics, scribbled a gazillion portraits, sung two seasons as a mercenary Christmas caroler, performed on a hundred street corners, in a dozen plays, and written and recorded nine albums. This is the very short list, leaving out as it does candy salesman, lifeguard, and other unsavory occupations. He’s currently an adjunct professor at Minneapolis College of Art and Design.
