Dan's
work is often satirical, mostly irreverent, and always
challenging. He frequently bends genres, breaks temporal
rules, and explores uncompromising themes.
Formerly
a political cartoonist,
Dan moved into comics in 2000, writing and illustrating
the critically acclaimed comic series DOGWITCH
following the
adventures of a banished witch named Violet
Grimm in
her search for redemption, revenge, and a date with a
pulse. DOGWITCH was an underground cult hit in America and the UK.
With
the psychological sci-fi graphic novel, THE
SCRIBBLER, Dan took his work in a more serious
direction. This tale of a dissociative young woman
subjected to a new psychotherapy experiment graphically
illustrates the dangers of mechanical thinking in an
organic world.
In
2004 Dan collaborated
with British rock singer
Katiejane
Garside on
the seminal graphic novel INDIGO
VERTIGO, an
hallucinatory tale
of one woman's experience at the brink of reality.
In
2008 Dan moved into film with the gender-horror satire DOGHOUSE.
The screenplay started a bidding war before
being picked up by Sony. It was released
theatrically in June 2009.
Dan's
screenplay adaptation of THE SCRIBBLER
began filming in May 2012 in LA.
