Quick Bio...
When he isn't trying to take scary pictures of himself, Joe Caramagna is a freelance graphic artist. Aside from various LOGO DESIGNS, he has designed characters for WHITMORE MERCHANDISING, created storyboards for CURIO PRODUCTIONS and has worked in the MARVEL COMICS Bullpen.
As a child, Joe wrote and illustrated his own stories, mostly bad, based on the BATMAN television series of the late 60's, and the original STAR TREK series (Not the new stuff!).
Joe created MARTY CUBIC in 1995, and has done nothing with the character until 1999, when the MARTY CUBIC comic strip appeared for a 3-month run in the Elmwood Park Press. Currently, he is working on a 32-page comic book of Marty Cubic that is serving as the basis of the current story arc featured on this site.
