Author: Edo Bosnar

Edo, or Ed (or, if you must, Edward) Bosnar currently lives in Zagreb, Croatia with his partner Sanja, their dog and too many cats. He is, however, American born and raised: he grew up in Oregon’s Willamette Valley, and then spent his college years and a little after in several parts of the San Francisco Bay Area of California. Most importantly, as far back as he can remember, he’s been a fan and consumer of all kinds of atomic junk (comics, SF, fantasy, cartoons, pulp fiction, and movies and TV shows of questionable quality).
