with work for Marvel, DC, Image, Dynamite, Dark Horse , Upper Deck, as well as his creator owned project GUARDIANS. You've seen his
work on titles such as SONIC THE HEDGEHOG, TRANSFORMERS, IRON MAN, AVENGERS ASSEMBLE, PANTHA, VILLAINS SUPREME, and
you can see him on film the blockbuster movie THE DARK KNIGHT RISES. Michael can also usually be found at a drawing board, a

still hasn't learned important techniques such as "Wax on, and Wax off", but he knows with time he will get there. Michael also loves to
collect vintage Transformers, he says "collect"..others say it's an addiction.
