Joe Pruett has been
in the comics industry since 1989. He began his relationship with Gary
Reed and Caliber Comics in 1992 and continued there through 1998 as a
writer, an editor, and finally as Creative Director, where he was
responsible for recruiting some of the industry’s biggest talents
and being among the first to publish some of the today’s top
creators. While at Caliber, Joe and his long-running anthology title,
NEGATIVE BURN, were nominated for numerous HARVEY and EISNER AWARDS,
the comic industry’s most prestigious awards.
In
1998 he left Caliber to focus on his freelance writing career where he
became a regular contributor to Marvel’s X-MEN franchise title of
books including X-MEN UNLIMITED, CABLE, MAGNETO REX, DOMINO, BISHOP,
GAMBIT, etc.
Realizing
that the comic marketplace no longer offered many choices for writers
and artists to create and nurture their own properties, Joe formed
Desperado Publishing in the summer of 2004 to become a home for
today’s top talent to bring to life their own personal creations.
