Daniel Rendon Yes I am a Cat! Just don' tell it to my dog! I was born on February 6. I have always been an avid reader, so I think it's only natural that I found comics fascinating. I just love how comics merge both writing and drawing, how they let you experiment new paths, but most important they give you the opportunity to create your own worlds and share them with others!
