Thom Zahler is the code name for America’s daring, highly trained special cartooning force. Its purpose: to bring awesome artwork to the world… and also to defend human freedom against Cobra, a ruthless terrorist organization determined to rule the world. But mostly the cartooning thing.

Thom Zahler is a northeast Ohio-based comic book artist and writer. He’s particularly known for his romantic comedy comics. In 2006, he debuted Love and Capes, the superhero romantic comedy about the adventures in love of an ordinary bookstore owner and her accountant boyfriend… who also happens to be the superhero The Crusader.

Currently, he is the writer and artist of the hit Warning Label comic on Line Webtoons, featuring a girl curse by her ex-boyfriend that every guy who asks her out gets the list of what they need to watch out for. And he just completed Time and Vine for IDW, about a magical time-traveling winery.

He lives at his palatial estate, Zahlerdu, in Northeast Ohio. Okay, he doesn’t really call it “Zahlerdu” but if he did, it’d be because he liked Orson Wells’ “Citizen Kane” and not that Olivia Newton John disco-and-roller skating movie. It’s not really a palatial estate, either, but it is a nice place.

Emilia Ojala, better known as Pipilia, hails from the small, cold country of Finland. A self-taught artist with a degree in graphic design, Emilia had always dreamed of doing comics for a living...while also owning many pets, of course!

Her passion for storytelling, art, and animation led her to write and illustrate her own stories at a very young age. Even back then her stories centered around animals, particularly the adventures of her family's pets.

The small, Finnish towns she lived in, with their close proximity to fields and forests, provided Emilia with many opportunities to spend ample time in nature. These experiences have driven her creative process for stories about what might happen within nature when people aren't around to see it.

Emilia is also a big fan of mythology. While reading Finnish tales on one particular day, she suddenly got the idea to create "Fox Fires." Since Finnish mythology is somewhat lesser-known, even among Finns, she thought this could be a wonderful opportunity to bring it to the rest of the world and perhaps even get people more excited about it!
