Dan Ruble
Phoenix Comic Books Examiner | Bio
Find out more about Dan:

Dan Ruble was born in Mankato, MN, raised in the smog-infested, gang-riddled city of Phoenix, AZ and then educated in the desolate mid-western small town of Marshall, MN. He attained a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Creative Writing at Southwest Minnesota State University, where he also contributed to the campus literary magazine. He has worked as a pizza delivery driver, an assistant manager for Blockbuster Video, as a security guard and as a proofreader for a financial publisher. Dan also at one time became quite proficient as a bass guitar player, and semi-proficient as a drummer. Being a rabid comics reader, and voracious film buff, these serve mainly as distractions as he continues his quest for truth and love meandering among the freeways and cesspools of Phoenix. Dan also believes in the immortal words of Jedi master Yoda: "Do or do not, there is no try."
