ABOUT MORITZ JUNKER

 

Whether stemming from pure love of the comics medium or total delusions of grandeur, young cartoonist Moritz Junker has spent the past five years quietly chipping away at his ambitions of comic book stardom. At age 14 Junker started creating and self-publishing his own comics and has yet to stop.

What will become of young Moritz? Only time will tell…
