I'm a storyteller and writer originally from Oakland, Calif. I have a deep love of comic books – the medium that helped me learn English as a young, first-generation American born of Mexican immigrants. My original stories include The Lunar Ladies (Scout Comics), California Love for the LA Strong anthology (Mad Cave Studios), and Major Thomás (Amazon / Comixology Originals).
In terms of praise and awards, I broke the Guinness World Record for Largest Comic Book Published in 2014 and was featured in the 2015 publication of the Guinness book. I also won the inaugural Comic Book Hero writing contest back in 2009 and was featured on TV ads that ran during The CW’s Smallville.
I have a few pitches in active development, so if you’re an editor, publisher, or agent, please feel free to reach out with the contact button on this site. Keep it locked for more info about my projects here at The Force Media and on all my social feeds: @omorales81 on any social media or gaming platform.
Of course, I need to thank my loving wife and kids for all of their unconditional support of my projects – and I thank you for stopping by! #MakingComics #NarrativeDesign #EarnedMedia
