Travis Horseman:

Travis was born in Springfield, Ohio, and discovered comic books at the age of six. Since then, the course of his life has been shaped by his love of comics, theater and classical history. In addition to being a writer, he has been an actor, a director, a produced playwright, and occasionally, all three at once. After writing the first draft of his ancient Roman epic "Amiculus: A Secret History" as a ten-page play in college, he began adapting it as a comic. Initially intending for it to be a short 32-page project, it took on a life of its own, expanding to a 200-page graphic novel. Travis partnered with veteran comic artist Giancarlo Caracuzzo (www.giancarlocaracuzzo.com) to bring the script to life panel-by-panel over three successful crowdfunding campaigns, releasing the final version in 2020.

Since "Amiculus", Travis has continued to write, crowdfund and publish comics under his label Amiculus Books, venturing into horror with "Sugar Creek" in 2019 and combining horror with ancient history in the vampire story "In Noctem" in 2021. Currently, he is hard at work on a mythological fantasy miniseries, "Pythia: the Last Oracle," with Roxy Comics artist Jessie Robinson.
