Hello everyone, everywhere, all at once!    I'll be writing Zines (Master Zines 😎) and Web Comics ((Master Comics 😎) from now on.

My Zines will be focused on nerdy computer stuff, from bits to Quamputers (Quantum Computers :P), history to mystery of machines, programming security and many more.   

My Web Comics will be based on quirky frailties of day to day life, society, computers, work, dark humor, and sometimes all combined. 😈🏘️🖥️🎃

I like to draw zines by hand and digitize them later..

A great art has the power to ignite the dormant embers of our souls, painting vibrant hues of inspiration and touching the chords of our hearts with brushstrokes of eternal beauty.

And this is just the beginning. Within the first step lies the radiant spark of endless possibilities, lighting the path towards dreams yet unseen, and unlocking the door to a universe of untapped potential.

I've made some samples so far, which I'm going to post periodically.

Have a look at my new 'Basic C Concepts' series zine.

Follow me for awesome things that I could offer to the world.
