Author: Adam Waugaman
I was born in Tarentum, PA and moved around the east coast for a majority of my youth. The only constant was my love of geek culture (anime, video games, comics). My family finally settled in northern Virginia and I met my wife there. I was able to convert her to the dork side and now have a partner who may be more knowledgeable in comics than I am.
Shortly after marriage I started a YouTube channel and recently got into making comic book content. I focus mainly on short reviews and weekly comic pulls. Other content includes a weekly wrestling show featuring my YouTube friends and Let’s Plays.
My professional life has consisted of customer service work in the grocery industry. I’ve been able to learn a lot though and have become a pretty good cook and beer snob. Even nerds like classy things.
