Joshua Hilgenberg

Josh Hilgenberg is a comic aficionado, dabbler in video games, and lover of ironic poetry. Right now, he’s reading Batman, Saga, Extremity, and Rock Candy Mountain and an out of control backlog of other books on ComiXology. If pressured into naming his favorite writers, he’d say Brian K. Vaughan, Tom King, and probably Jeff Lemire, but he’d probably be forgetting someone and trail off into something unrelated, like talk about video games. Josh also loves playing video games. He probably spends too much time on his Nintendo Switch, playing one game and waiting for the next to come out in a vicious, yet cathartic, fund draining cycle. He attributes his love for comics, video games to a childhood stuffed with Spyro the Dragon, Star Fox, Pokemon, Dragonball Z, Samurai Jack, and, naturally, Batman: The Animated Series.Hopefully, after he graduates this year, he’ll pull his life together and do something successful with creative writing.
