mybio bio
 

     Hello, my name is Jason Temujin Minor and I've worked for over twenty years as Comic Book artist, Game Developer, and Writer. I attended the Joe Kubert School of Cartoon and Graphic Art in 1990 and started my own freelance studio, called Baraka Studios, in 1998. My portfolio covers a wide range of media, including; comic books, 3D graphics, book covers, web design, ad design, Illustration, and fine art.
     As a comic book artist, I am best known for my work on "The Books of Magic", "Buffy the Vampire Slayer", "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles", "Animal Man", and "Deadpool". I have also worked on such diverse titles as "Batman", "X-Men", "Terror Inc.", "Angel", "Shadowman", "Vampirella", and the Eisner Award winning anthology "The Big Book of Urban Legends". In 1997 I co-created the science fiction mini-series, "BrainBanx", with writer Elaine Lee for the short-lived Helix imprint of DC Comics.
     In 2000, I transition from a 2d graphic artist to a 3d computer game artist for the (now defunct) game studio, Kinesoft. In 2001, I went to work for Sony Online Entertainment on their MMO, Star Wars: Galaxies. I was an environment and character artist for the initial launch of the game and became the lead character artist on the Rage of the Wookiees Expansion. I took over as Art Director of the Live Team in 2004. In 2006, I joined the game company, BioWare, to work on their MMO, Star Wars: The Old Republic as the lead character artist.
     Recently, I've started exploring my writing. I won an award for my short story, "A Dance in the Woods", contributed a short story and several interior illustrations for the horror flash-fiction anthology, Flashes of Fear, and I write a monthly, serialized story called Chapter Play, for the Gabriel Writer. I am also working on several personal projects, including a series of Children's stories with my wife.
