Meet the Creators!
Co-writer, Dave Justus (He/Him)
Dave Justus bought his first comic book — a Robotech adaptation — at age nine, and that’s when he decided he wanted to grow up to write them. Isn’t that sad? He made his professional debut on House Of Mystery’s unique “exquisite corpse” issue for Vertigo in 2010, and helped lower the beloved DC imprint into its grave via series like Fables: The Wolf Among Us and Everafter: From The Pages Of Fables.
He and frequent co-writer Lilah Sturges created their Ignatz Award-nominated series Public Relations for 1First Comics in 2015. That same year, Dave wrote the interactive fiction app Lifeline, a text game in the style of the “choose your own adventure” books of his youth, for 3 Minute Games. TIME Magazine was quick to name Lifeline “the best game on the Apple Watch,” and the original app’s runaway popularity led to Dave writing several sequels and overseeing an interconnected universe of titles that continues to expand, with more than seven million worldwide downloads. Dave lives in Austin, Texas with his wife Jamie and more than seven million cats and rabbits.
Co-writer, Lilah Sturges (She/Her)
Lilah Sturges is the Eisner-, Hugo-, and GLAAD Media Award-nominated writer of everything from Lumberjanes to Blue Beetle to The Magicians to Dune: The Official Movie Graphic Novel. With Dave Justus she’s written Everafter: From the Pages of Fables, and Public Relations. She loved college but her GPA was nothing to write home about. She lives in Portland, Oregon with her wife and a three-legged cat named Greg.
