Brandon Michael Barker is an Indiana-based artist/writer, and owner of ManOrMonster? Studios. He is the creator of sci-fi/fantasy property Warlords of Wor, for which he produces handmade resin toys, and writes/publishes a series of tie-in comics. His artistic collaborators on this project have included Tim Seeley (Hack/Slash, Revival), Tom Scioli (Transformers vs. G.I. Joe), Ryan Browne (God Hates Astronauts), Andy Belanger (Kill Shakespeare, Southern Cross), and many others. His designer toys have been featured in a number of art galleries and are held in collections across the globe. In addition to toys and comics, he is also an illustrator, and has recently begun flirting with enamel pin design. His websites are embarrassingly outdated, he's never seen Predator, and he has failed Lord Vader for the last time. During Jon Con, Brandon will be selling prints, pins, hand-made toys, his Warlords of Wor comics, and making fun of Matthew Skillern for all the sketches he's doing (but only because he secretly envies his commitment to his craft). https://www.facebook.com/manormonster/ https://www.facebook.com/warlordsofwor/ https://www.manormonsterstudios.com https://www.warlordsofwor.com

Hi, my name is Phillip Young, and I am a Freelance Illustrator and full-time student at Ivy Tech for Visual Communication with a focus in Graphic Design. This will be my second full year of doing artist-tables at shows and getting my name out there. I'll have my first sketchbook collection for sale at the show and also will be doing commissions but on top of that I will have free sketches that have been done for the 2016 Free Bomic Book Day. I've competed in several comic in a day contests and just love doing comic book related art. Hope to see you all at the Android's Dungeon May 7th!
