Josh Elder is the last survivor of a doomed planet, sent to earth so that he may use his vast powers for the good of all mankind. Instead he chose to write comic books. Though he still saves the earth on occasion, he just prefers to keep it on the down low.

Josh is the creator of the Mail Order Ninja graphic novel series and nationally syndicated comic strip as well as being a writer for DC Comics' The Batman Strikes and the StarCraft graphic novel line. He also gives lectures on comics at schools and libraries across the country.
