Bios

Nathanael Hopkins-Smith (Writer)

The Vagabond was originally a short film made by the Writer in 2005. In 2006 he continued his passion for making movies by attending Film School, which eventually landed him a job in TV where he has been working behind the scenes for the last 3 years.

The type of films Nathanael wants to make requires a lot of time & money (which he doesnt have hence indie gogo campagin) So he combined his Passion for storytelling with his love of comic books and decided to turn "The Vagabond" into an on going comic series.

Nathanael is in the process of getting several comic book ideas off the ground, including "The Vagabond" so expect to see more projects from him in the near future.

Comics by Comic Fans

Written & Illustrated by people who love comics for people that love comics.

Our influences range from 70s-80s Action/Martial Arts Movies to the classic Marvel & DC lineup, to the more cult classics Such as Garth Ennis (Punisher/Preacher/Hitman) Alan Moore (Watchmen/V for Vendetta/From Hell) Mark Miller (KickAss/Wolverine: Oldman Logan/Civil War/Superman Red Son) and Robert Kirkman (Walking Dead/Invincible)

Supporting Independent Comic Books

The Australian Comic Book Industry is very small and needs all the help it can get, with Australian Actors making it big in Hollywood and even playing Iconic Comic book characters such as Wolverine, Thor, Dr Doom, and Hulk, its about time we see some Australian Comics get the exposure they deserve.
