Hey there jammers! Are you ready for some comics about wrestling (or, if you’re from my neck o’ the woods: rasslin’)? Oh my gosh, get ready for some straight up insanity as we shove some Luchador comics in your eyeholes!

Before we do that I want to tell you what our good buddy Doug Woods is doing! He has a comic kickstarter ongoing that looks amazing. Do please check it out and don’t miss out on this one:

Kyle Francisco is: a) Californian b) a writer, and c) a frequent contributor to The Comic Jam. That’s really all I know about him. He’s pretty mysterious.

Claudio Ghirardo is a storyteller, family man, and Kubert school graduate living in Ontario.

Kevin D. Lintz is a comic book letterer and writer. He learned his skills in a Comics Experience class and honed them on the mean streets of his all-ages comic book, Team SLUG. He has lettered several stories for Comics Experience alumni stories and anthologies. He frequently startles his family by making sound effect noises out loud to try and translate them into written words. He has even watched “Helvetica”, the full-length feature movie about the font Helvetica

Daniel Gordon is a writer and all around good dude. Check out his amazing comic on comiXology here:

Justin/LetterSquids is a letterer and a designer. He makes comics look and read better. His portfolio can be found here:

Aaron Guzman is a loosely constructed vessel of spraypaint cans, pen nibs, and life drawing class flyers living in New York City. He leaves a trail of ink and oil paints wherever he goes. Maybe don’t let him into your fresh carpet.
