Hello. I'm Steve Requin, I live in Montreal, and I kind of write comics for a living. These days, I write for Safarir, a french humor comic magazine not unlike Mad, available in the province of Québec.
I'm 36 yrs old, five foot eight or 173 cm, 210 lbs, brown+grey+white hair I usually dye dark brown, bloodtype is B-, brown eyes, and kinda looks like Bruce Campbell, with less chin and more chest hair.
I do 2 webcomics: Artiztech College with my girlfriend Karine who pencils most of the cute animals (I never could draw cute stuff), about some stupid students in some college, and The Eight, a story about a witch from a small village who got killed and came back as a vampire to get her revenge, with my friend Mazoku-Chan who pencils all the characters. I take care of the rest, including the webpages.
A friend of mine made me discover the fabulous world of online webcomics with Mac Hall somewhere around october 2002, which, in turn, made me discover other webcomics, and I've been hooked since then. Well, I already knew about the original Chugworth Academy, but back then I didn't know there were so much webcomics around.
You can see some of my art at requin.deviantart.com, and those of you who can read french can take a look at La Zone Requin, a webpage in which I write the many misadventures I've had in my life, with a touch of humour that made me kinda famous. Yep, I may have up to twenty fans out there. Woo-hoo !
Something I want to point out: French canadians who speak english do NOT sound like Pepe le Pu. Only european francophones do. Also, canadians don't say "Eh!?" at the end of every sentence. Well, most of us don't, eh !? The only bears I've seen in my life were at the zoo, and the only moose I've ever seen is on our 25¢ coin. Of course, it's hard to take Canada seriously when we have towns with names like Moose Jaw, Grand-Mère (grandmother), Saint-Louis-du-Ha!-Ha! , and Les Boules (Boules=balls. Yeah, I know what you think, but in french boules=boobies)
I LIKE: Drawing, writing, make parodies, James Dean, Elvis before he joined the army, green tea, Rock & Roll, karaoké, Spring Breaks, looking good (and someday, I will be), being popular (and someday, I will be), cooking, God, sex, my girlfriend Karine, ¢a$h, the eighties, Spike TV, My 2 boys and 2 daughters, respect, and eating sandwiches made out of toasted bagels filled with butter, Philadelphia cream cheese, 2 sliced of cooked turkey breast with a pinch of black pepper and chives, for breakfast.
I DISLIKE: Hypocrites, cigarettes, the taste of beer, those who'd rather bitch about a situation rather than do what it takes to fix it, video games, The taste of chocolate, watching whatever sports on TV, life stealers (You know, these lonely persons you bring into your life, who slowly become good friends with your friends, the better to kick you out of your universe and take your place.), allergies, the side effects of a good plate of cooked beans.
WHAT I LOOK LIKE: My avatar picture was taken in late 1986, I was 18. I'm now twice that age, and that's what I looked like a couple of months ago, when I was cleaning my new appartment before moving in:
( I swear, I've never had to deal with a ceilling THAT dirty before.)
er... Zat's about it !
