About Alan Booker...
Years ago I worked in comic books for a short time and produced a few books, the most famous being Racer X # 1, Racer X The Graphic Novel and Speed Racer # 8, 9 and 11. I then moved on to animation while simultaneously working in advertising illustration -both as a storyboard artist. In the mid 1990's I worked on some popular TV shows such as Captain Planet, Swat Kats, Sonic the Hedgehog and Mortal Kombat.
But my roots were always in comic books and that's why I've set out to create a site where lovers of comic books can read new stories from me for free! So thanks for stopping by and come back again soon. Alan Booker |
