Eric Haven

The comic art of Eric Haven was forged in the icy wastes of Syracuse, NY, and reconstituted in the fecund mental loam of the San Francisco Bay Area. His inky, rubbery drawings buttress story riffs which may otherwise collapse under the weight of their own bleak, black, absurdist humor. He's worked as a security guard; in a Japanese sake factory; at Industrial Light + Magic; and on the TV show MythBusters, where he is a three-time Emmy nominated Producer. His book UR was recently nominated for an Eisner Award.
