Coolest Geek Alive

Jesse Blaze Snider is the hero we need, bipartisan & scrutinizing. Like a nerd culture Arthur Fonzarelli, he will give you that perfect advice you need or jump some sharks to save the day himself. He’s a geek like you. A fan of the source material FIRST, who believes that geeks need to get their geek news from other geeks or it’s all bull$#!+. He’s a professional comic book writer whose credits include Marvel, DC, Image, Disney*Pixar, the Muppets & a lot more. He’s an English major, a music minor & a damn good broadcast journalist since the age of 19. Truly, you’ve never met a more humble taste-making mortal than this lovable muppet of a man. He even wrote this bio. JBS believes that the world deserves better MYTHS and he’s NOT GONNA TAKE IT…not anymore. Some things…are worth fighting for. Join us, won’t you?
