Adam Talley - The Myth, The Man, The Legend!

BIO: Raised primarily in central Michigan all his life, Adam started drawing around 1985 with a show on PBS called The Secret City. He then became interested in comics during the DEATH OF SUPERMAN story around 1992. He then went on to create his own characters and develop a 5 part story in his first published work for the Comic Amateur Press Alliance on the campus of Central Michigan University. He released 3 independent comics in high school named DARKNESS #1, DARKNESS #2 and THE AMAZING BUD all published before 1995. He graduated from Beal City High School in 1996 excelling in art and jazz music. He attended Central Michigan University from 1999 to 2004, Majoring in Art with a minor in Art History.

After a hiatus from comics to focus on the start of college, Adam returned in early 2002 with his sensational new book PLEASANT HYMNS . In 2007, he re-titled that series to be named PLEASANT LIFE . The story was completed in four seperate tradebooks, the first three of which are sold out and no longer currently available. Plans are to re-release them will come sometime in the future. 2012 is the tenth year anniversary of the series, and Adam plans on doing something special for that event.

In 2010, Adam released his first new series since Pleasant Life. A post-apocalyptic tale about religion, humanity and revenge known as ANNA POCALYPSE . The first issue sold out and Adam then choose to release the entire mini series as one stand alone tradebook which was released in March 2011. He is currently working on a sequel.

His work has also been seen on such books as: THE ADVENTURES OF EARTHGIRL AND ATOMIC ADONIS , WISE INTELLIGENCE , THE EXPENDABLES and much more. He also has done some pinup work for ANTARCTIC PRESS and logo designs for many other clients.

He has been featured on web sites, newspapers, television and magazines talking about his work. He regularly hits the comic convention circuit each year to promote him and his work. He also maintains an online presence through this website and its online store, Twitter and Facebook. He resides in Michigan with his wife, three loving pets and a child unit named "SCOTT-BOT 4000."
