Biographical
Christine Brunson has always been fascinated by the storytelling power of comic books, so she started crafting her own. In 2012, she made her debut as co-creator, writer, and colorist for the web comic Undead Norm. Since then she has used her colorist skills on series such as Amazing Age, Xigency Studios’ Amazonia, and Matthew David Smith’s Simon Says. In addition, she has drawn and colored Phantom ‘79 for Saturday Comics!
In addition to her work in comics, Christine has taken part as a moderator, panelist, special guest, and exhibitor at many Carolina-area conventions and library events. Some of her work has been displayed in art galleries such as the Surface Craft Gallery in Charleston, SC.
When not working on comics, Christine can be found creating domino art with her son, dodging her cat’s attacks, discussing video game lore with her husband, and trying to figure out if she is the good or evil twin. She is currently working on a magical girl comic with JD Benefield, flat coloring for other colorists, and continuing the zomedy Undead Norm.
