Matt Fraction writes comic books out in the woods and lives with his wife, writer Kelly Sue DeConnick, his two children, two dogs, a cat, a bearded dragon, and a yard full of coyotes and crows. Surely there's a metaphor there. He's a New York Times-best-selling donkus of comics like Sex Criminals (winner of the 2014 Will Eisner Award for Best New Series and named TIME Magazine's Best Comic of 2013), ODY-C, and Casanova. Under their company Milkfed Criminal Masterminds, Inc., Fraction and DeConnick are currently developing television for NBC/Universal. Chip Zdarsky is the current writer of Batman for DC Comics (somehow). For Image Comics he's the writer of Newburn and the writer/illustrator of the award-winning Public Domain. His previous work includes an acclaimed run on Daredevil and Spider-Man: Life Story for Marvel, and he's the illustrator of Image Comics' Sex Criminals--an Eisner Award winning series and New York Times Bestseller (despite all the penis jokes).
