About Shag

By day, The Irredeemable Shag plays the part of a wealthy industrialist, playboy, and philanthropist. By night, he is a frightening creature that strikes terror into the hearts of criminals!

... or ...

maybe The Irredeemable Shag managed a comic book store for four years, and a movie theater megaplex for three years. Nowadays he's just a really vocal geek on THE UNIQUE GEEK, a semi-regular on the VIEWS FROM THE LONGBOX podcast, and runs the ONCE UPON A GEEK and FIRESTORM FAN blogs.

Look what Serv and I found in Illinois…

Gotta love that stock art. So Rob, you’re the stock art expert, any idea who the artist is?
