* Wham Bang Comics Debuts The Legend of Night Owl

Give Jake Tinsley five minutes and he'll sell you his latest comic book. It doesn't matter where you meet Jake: on an airplane; in a restaurant; in the halls of his middle school. At 14, Jake is one of the youngest comic book writers in the U.S. and has more than a year of sales experience under his belt. He has authored five comic books and 20 comic strips, launched art shows at three galleries, and served as an expert panelist during a comic book convention in Las Vegas. In January, Jake debuted his fifth comic book, "The Legend of Night Owl," a collection of comic strips he wrote since co-founding Wham Bang Comics last year with his father, journalist Ben Tinsley.
