We&#8217;re a small press comics team of three (two artists and our webtech) built on the foundation of the artworks of KEVIN BOLK.</p>
<p>Kevin Bolk is a freelance cartoonist, illustrator, and proud alumnus of Awesome University (his favorite imaginary alma mater). Although he&#8217;s done work for Nickelodeon, Tokyopop, Udon Entertainment, Blind Ferret Entertainment, and Voices For, he?s best known for his parody webcomics &#8220;It Sucks to be Weegie&#8221; and &#8220;Ensign Sue Must Die!&#8221; as part of Interrobang Studios&#8217; Pot Luck Comics.</p>
<p>Sarah Martinez has spent her adult life working in comics and behind the scenes in the industry. She ran a store for 4 years, works in Comic Distribution, and founded Interrobang Studios with Kevin. She<br />
inks and writes for the studio&#8217;s Trigger Star comic (www.triggerstar.com) &#038; draws the goofy silent monster comic Spinks!<br />
(www.spinkspink.com).  Look for her panels which focus on the practicalities of comics and art as business.</p>
<p>The team has been putting out comics online for over 6 years at Interrobang Studios (http://www.interrobangstudios.com). The studio runs 4 webcomics simultaneously, 3 of them being all original works: Kevin&#8217;s I&#8217;m My Own Mascot (www.mascotcomic.com), Sarah&#8217;s Spinks (www.spinkspink.com), and their collaboration, Trigger Star (www.triggerstar.com).</p>
