Founder of Devil’s Due Studios
Founder of the legacy indy publisher and studio Devil’s Due, Josh Blaylock is a prolific comic book writer and artist who began publishing comics as a teenager, rising to fame six years later with the license acquisition and resurrection of G.I. Joe, Voltron, and other classic properties in the comic space. This kickstarted a nostalgia wave that is still felt to this day, pioneering a trend of independent publishers seizing the spotlight by revitalizing major licensed brands. Having published and written over a thousand comic books to date, he is most well known for his supernatural action comic Mercy Sparx, as well as the sci-fi series The Encoded. Several of his creations have been translated into toys, film, and television, and his non-fiction book, How to Self-Publish Comics: Not Just Create Them is required reading at Savannah College of Art & Design. He has also worked on collaborations with Adidas, Hannibal Buress, Louis the Child, and more.
