Hello. My name is Mark Shallow and I’ve been a webcomic artist for almost fifteen years. Since the early days of BigPanda and Keenspace, I’ve been playing with HTML code, Photoshop, pens, scanners, and tablets to create some of the Internet’s most beloved sequential art.

I have worked as a programmer full time to support myself while spending 10 hours a week updating webcomics. However now that I’ve recently become unemployed due to downsizing, I felt it was the right time to set up a patreon and devote my ample free time to pumping out more bad puns and crazy hijinks! All I need from you, dear reader, is your support to help me do it.

Some of my works for the unfamiliar:

ADVENTURERS!
http://adventurers.keenspot.com
The very first console RPG webcomic on the internet, it focused on the exploits of the spikey haired warrior Karn and his level-headed mage buddy Ardam as they try to save "This Planet" from the nefarious final boss Khrima and his unquenchable laser-lust.



ANTI-HERO FOR HIRE!
http://antihero.keenspot.com
Dark, trenchoat wearing, gun toting, but not so brooding - Licenced superhero Shadehawk (real name Dechs Rashart) protects Triumph City by night from a gallery of ne’er-do-wells, aided by his best bud, the hacker known as Wrench (real name Laria Moondale)



MARK SHALLOW, (aka webrunner)
Canadian and technically-scientist started ADVENTURERS! while bored in his high school AP Math Class, with the dual delusions that he was funny and could draw. It turned out that one of those was true and the other was one he could work on. So as the years went on, he graduated university with a bachelor's in Computer Science and ADVENTURERS! became okay looking, eventually ending a couple of years later.

Ever the ambitious dreamer and punmeister Mark started a second comic, Antihero for Hire, set in mid-twenty second century mid atlantic. It showcases the same trademark silliness, with more darker and scifi themes throughout.
