WHO ARE YOUR
UNDER-LORDS?
Cameron Ferguson
AKA: SketchyGuyNV
Cameron (founding member) has been publishing cartoons off and on since the late 80's. Poking fun at the simple things in life. In the last few years he has stepped into the much bigger world of self-publishing comic books. He has written and illustrated four issues of "ProfessorG and Blake" including the complete collection graphic novel, (loosely) based on real-life Reno area personalities. In 2023 he is releasing "The Sisters Wolf" a story of a demon-fighting family of witches including two 9-year old twins, a nurturing older sister and "Byrne", a talking head from the civil war. Also he is working on "The Shop" and "Short Haul", two stories being co-imagined with Jonathan Greenberg (Professor G) scheduled to release late 2023.

Nathan Johns
AKA: Gauge the Wolf
Nathan Johns is considered by family and friends to be a Bard out of time. His greatest dream was to be a writer. He started comic book creating adventure through hosting tabletop roleplaying games. He used his imagination to create and share adventures with his group. Because of his dedication to telling rich stories he built a dedicated gaming group who still meets regularly, rain or shine, to join him and his creations. He also commissioned artwork of characters he created in order to immerse his fellow adventures into the stories. This gave him the idea to translate his years of stories in to a visual form in the form of comic books.
He has written many stories, notably helping write stories and monsters for a new roleplaying book called "After 5e" and various scripts, which ultimately one of them was converted to create his first comic!
His creation, “GodSlayers” is in print and available now in physical and digital formats.
His imagination is constantly going wild creating new worlds and characters to share with everyone.
Brent Turner
AKA: B.A.T. Man
Born and raised in the “thumb” of Michigan, Brent spent his youth working on his family’s farm and reading the Animorphs book series. After graduating high school, he attended Oakland University in Auburn Hills, a Detroit suburb. During his studies and struggle to find myself, he fell in love with not only reading poetry, but also writing it, which has led to the completion of a collection of poems.
His interest in poetry led him to reading a novel that has forever impacted him as a person and as a writer, that novel being Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand. Rand’s characterization and high level of detail made him feel as if he was truly transported into the book itself. Rand’s belief that inspiration is actually the subconscious summing-up of the premises and intentions you have set yourself really resonated with him. Especially since dreams are the manifestations of your subconscious thoughts and it was a dream that spawned the plot to his novel.
The cherry on top of that influence sundae is the inspiration Brent soaked up from Zack Snyder and Christopher Nolan films which he manifests in his novel and comic series “Vigilantes’ Creed”, a grit filled action story based around a gargoyle and a team of vigilantes.
Brent’s goal as writer/creator is to bring amazing stories to life that are visually shocking, emotional, and relatable … stories that can impact the lives of others.
