The Creators
Michael
Balistreri
Co-Creator and Artist
Not only am I the Artist, Co-Creator and sometimes secondary Writer for Black Snow, I'm also the webmaster of this very site! I am a twenty-three year old University of California Berkeley student majoring in Film Studies, and as you can see I also like to dabble in the fine arts. I have grown up watching too many cartoons, playing videogames, and drawing my own characters. The Black Snow comic book is something I greatly enjoy doing, because I think it's the best damn comic book you'll ever find. To someday get paid to do this and actually have people read it would be like a dream come true for me, but only time will tell if either of those things will ever happen. My collaborator on this crazy endeavor is my long time friend and one of the only writers I know, the enigmatic Alex.
Alex Siquig
Co-Creator and Writer
Alex is a twenty-three year old English major at the wonderful De Anza Community College, where he is currently completing his fifth year on the slow track to success. He has been writing various creative stories all his life and enjoys reading a good book. Unlike me, Alex grew up reading comic books and has a natural appreciation for them. It is his goal to become a professional writer someday. His other hobbies include watching a lot of movies and getting drunk. He also enjoys listening to music, ranging from rap to punk rock. To his credit an Alex Haters Club was once formed, but was quickly disbanded when they realized they could not thwart this wily man. Little more is known about this mysterious figure or the inner workings of his strange mind. Often misunderstood and seldom appreciated would be about the best description I could offer up.
