SPACE Exhibitor Bios Part 2


Samantha Albert:
Samantha Albert is a barista by day, and the comic artist for The Electric Team by night. She can often be found drinking coffee, playing D&D, and reading whatever fantasy novels she can get her hands on.

Will Arnold:


Work Press & Publication is an independent print and publishing house based in St. Louis, MO and Champaign, IL. It was founded in 2013 by Will Arnold and Tate Foley.
Work Press started because of a mutual interest in small-press, short-run, desktop publishing and Risograph printing. We are interested in creative projects that situate themselves in a mezzanine between fine artist’s books and efficiently produced zines. While a lot of Work Press’s books and prints contain various printing and production processes, Risograph printing is at the heart of our shop.
The content of our work explores a variety of interests, from photography to comics, fine art, and illustration. It is tied together by a love of the printed page and the physicality of books and zines.
 

Glenn Baskin:


80 Proof Comix has been around since the late 80's in various forms. In 2007 it began a true storyline (Days of Bewilderment) featuring past characters put in a new situation. Taking bits, pieces, fragments, and experiences from working in the DD/Mental Health group home setting, I've worked on creating a comedic realistic look at the staff that work at these homes and some of the situations they face (without getting on a soap-box). Currently working on Chapter 10 (the last chapter), Chapters 1-9 are collected in affordable editions.
