John Patrick Green
John Patrick Green grew up on Long Island and has worked in New York City ever since. In 1997, he graduated from School of Visual Arts for Graphic Design.

He was the comics consultant for Disney Adventures magazine, and in addition
to Disney has illustrated, written, or otherwise worked on comics for DC Comics, Nickelodeon, Dreamworks, First Second Books, and Scholastic.

When he’s not drawing comics, John makes artwork for video games, like Nearly Departed, Emerald City Confidential, and Puzzle Bots.

John was really young he had horrible asthma and was unable to go to school for a long time, so he spent much of his time at home reading comics from the newspapers like Garfield, Peanuts, or Calvin & Hobbes.

He used to draw Garfield a bunch and once he was able to go to school during 3rd and 4th grade, he would give pictures away of Garfield to his fellow students, and then after awhile charged kids a buck if they wanted drawings. After a bit of time he was not allowed to because a teacher complained students used their lunch money to buy his drawings. John’s mom also told him about copyright, saying that he cannot draw Garfield since it doesn’t belong to him. So he made his own comics.

Footsies was his first comic, about a group animals and boys that had huge feet and would get into minor inconveniences due to this abnormality. He’d then photocopy and staple pages together into small booklets to sell other kids.

He is a human with the human job of creating books about animals with human jobs. John is certainly not just a bunch of animals wearing a human suit pretending to have some human’s job. He lives in an apartment in Brooklyn which does not allow animals besides the ones that live in John’s mind.

John’s primarily a comic book artist/writer, and finds that writer’s block typically manifests a little differently. Instead of not knowing what to write, he finds himself not knowing how to draw what he has written. This is something that can have a dangerous effect on his writing, because the ‘artist’ part will subconsciously influence the ‘writer’ part into just writing things that he knows how to draw, or even force him into writing around things that he doesn’t want to draw. And sometimes this is not always the best choice for the story.
