Matthew Peterson  -  Contributing Author / Reviewer / Key Grip / Bartender / Bass Player / Jack of All Trades / Boy Genius / Defender Of The Realm.

Matthew Peterson was born very young.  This made a lot of people angry, and has been widely regarded as a bad move. Amongst the native people of the Great Plains, he is known as “He Who Walks The Night Wind,” and was reputed to have killed a man in Reno just for snorin’ too loud.   

Matthew enjoys comic books, the Internet, professional wrestling, mid-70’s muscle cars, and speaking in the third person.  He’s still hoping to find a copy of Detective Comics #487.  He lives at home with his wife Stacy, and daughter Molly Elisabeth, who knows that “daddy’s books” are off-limits, and was recently heard to ask “Why are there all these comics on my table?” He both works at and purchases his comics from Gatekeeper Hobbies, the finest comic store within human cannonball distance.  Matthew secured this job by listing “Knows The Legion Of Super-Heroes members in joining order, their real names and home planet of origin” on his resume. 

Matthew has enjoyed a career path that includes work in radio, television, tele-communications, government consulting, retailing, marketing, acting as a knife throwers’ target, bartending, and an ill-fated weekend as a male stripper.  Now that’s he’s in his thirties, he’s sewn tweed patches to the elbows of his leather jacket, gotten a sensible haircut and prepared for adulthood to strike, and show him what he wants to be when he grows up.  He’s still waiting…
