Lyle Pollard is a talented penciller who has been drawing for longer than he is willing to admit, and would have probably had a much wealthier existence if he had played basketball or baseball or something. Fortunately for the comics community, he sucked at all sports, and he is now working on his creation TRIBULATIONS.
Lyle lives in Coats, NC (end of the world, and take a left) with his beautiful and supporting wife, Dana,
their daughter Gwen, and Race Dog, who is cute, but can be a pain in the ass.
Lyle is also proud of his futon on which the late, great Mike Watkins once slept. His credits include: Tribulations (Midnight Horizon Comics/Highburn Studios), Guardians (Midnight Horizon Comics/Highburn Studios/Dakuwaka Publishing), Femme Noir (Ape Entertainment), E-Man (Digital Webbing), Black Ice (Comic Mix), B.O.T.S. (Portal Productions), Slayer (Midnight Horizon Comics), Expulse (Midnight Horizon Comics), Ruthless (Dimestore Productions/Midnight Horizon Comics), Cookies (Midnight Horizon Comics), Dressed To Kill (Highburn Studios), and Legend of the Guitar Hero (Originew Animation Studio).

Ryan Eldridge is a writer based in Atlanta Georgia. After a lifetime of
love for comic books and the superhero genre, Ryan finally decided to
pick up the pen and start writing his own comics. Then he got a
cramp. So, he put the pen down and switched writing on his computer
instead. The increase in efficiency has led him to consider this what he
calls his "best idea ever".

soon from Highburn Studios.
