For over a decade, Justin Giampaoli’s sharp voice and insightful commentary earned him acclaim as an award-winning critic at Thirteen Minutes. As a versatile writer and editor, Justin’s portfolio includes genre-defying work at DC/Vertigo, Dark Horse, Boom! Studios, Madefire, Image, and Studio 12-7. His self-published crime caper The Mercy Killing with artist Tim Goodyear explores the darkest corners of the human psyche. He penned introductions and in-depth bonus content for New York Times bestseller DMZ at DC's landmark Vertigo imprint. With Rome West and Starship Down, two projects with artist Andrea Mutti at Dark Horse, Justin crafted worlds that blur history and science fiction in ways that stick with you long after the final page. Justin recently brought his editorial touch to geo-political thriller California, Inc. from writer Arthur Ebuen and artist Dave Law at Studio 12-7, where he returns to write Westside, a haunting crime drama illustrated by Dave Law, a project that’s already generating buzz for its hard-hitting narrative and raw intensity.
