Author has written 30 stories for Dragon Ball Z, Tiger & Bunny/タイガー&バニー, X-Men, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Walking Dead, Arrow, and Torchwood.

DRAGONBALL Z: For readers new to these stories, there is a general order to them so that they make more sense:

MULTI-CHAPTER SAGAS:

From Bad to Worse - This starts things off with the obligatory tale set in the infamous three-year gap that builds on Bulma and Vegeta's relationship.

Two Sides to a Story -After the Cell Saga, Bulma and Vegeta separate with terrible consequences to both.

A Dragonball Honeymoon - Immediately follows "TSTAS" with humorous tales of Bulma and Vegeta while on their Honeymoon.

Mirror Mirror - Following the Buu Saga, Vegeta suffers from the result of an aborted Potara Fusion.

Sibling Rivalry - (Following the 2008 TV special) Vegeta and Tarble try to forget the past as they come to terms with their unique relationship.

A Perfect Day - When Goku forgets Goten's High school graduation, it has real implications for both the Son and Briefs households.

ONE-SHOTS:

Back to School - Goku and Vegeta are forced to attend night school and decide to switch places to fool their wives.

The Halloween Whodunnit - Humorous one-shot of Vegeta escorting Bra around on Halloween.

Bra's Christmas Wish - Two months after "THW", Vegeta takes Bra to the mall after he eats a 20 year-old fruitcake.

President for a Day - When Bulma comes down with the flu, Vegeta takes over her responsibilities at Capsule Corp.

- and -

Bra, Trunks and Dear Ol' Dad - A stand alone piece with Vegeta and Trunks retrieving Bra from an illegal rave party. This was the first Vegeta tale I ever wrote... and it shows. Some people have told me it's the best portrayal of the Saiyan Prince in the entire bunch! I don't know about that but it's good for a laugh.

Cheers!

Three Strikes
So... here's the deal: Rictor and Shatterstar have broken up. It's official. Happy Freaking New Year. When this was revealed in Iceman #9 it hit me like a kick to the stomach. Here's my interpretation of how things MIGHT have gone down because, lord knows, no Marvel writer will ever go into detail or explanation.
