Scott Kurtz

Scott has wanted to make a living writing comic strips since his mother bought him the first “Garfield” book in 1980. His hobby turned into a full-time career in 2000 when Scott quit his job as a Web designer to go full time as a comic-strip artist. Scott’s comic, “PvP,” has been running since 1998 where it started with “Penny Arcade” at the now-defunct MPOG.COM. Over the last 10 years, Scott and his wife Angela have built PvP into a self-proprietorship with over 200,000 daily readers, a monthly comic book published by Image Comics, and a burgeoning online store for PvP merchandise.

Because of the neutrality of the net, and the support of thousands of PvP fans, Scott has been able to keep PvP a creator-owned property, side-stepping traditional avenues to a career in cartooning. PvP has been nominated for multiple Harvey Awards and won the Will Eisner Comic Industry Award for Best Digital Comic in 2006.
