Joshua Hale Fialkov is a creator of graphic novels, including Elk’s Run, The Bunker, The Life After, Punks, Tumor, and Echoes. He also served as a writer on the Emmy Award–nominated animated film Afro Samurai: Resurrection.
He has written comics for companies including Marvel, DC, Legendary, WildStorm, IDW, Dark Horse, Image, Tor Books, Seven Seas Entertainment, Del Rey, Random House, Dabel Brothers Productions, and St. Martin’s Press. He also wrote a Syfy Channel movie starring Isabella Rossellini and Judd Nelson. Unfortunately, at no point in the film does Judd Nelson punch the sky and freeze-frame.
Joshua grew up in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; went to college in Boston, where he got a BFA in writing and directing; and then worked in the New England film industry until finally deciding to move to Los Angeles to do it properly. He lives with his wife, author Christina Rice; their daughter; their dogs, Cole and Olaf (Twelve Monkeys and Frozen, respectively); and a very unimpressed cat.
