WHO?
G’day. I’m Joe. Thanks for stopping by my portfolio.
I’m an Aussie writer and artist who has been living in the UK since 2016.
My work has appeared on several websites, such as Medium, RetroCollect, GameTripper and Gemr.com. I am currently working on my first book, a history of video game company SEGA.
Outside of this, I have worked on several on-line projects, such as originating ChronicleChamber.com, the longest running and most prominent fan site dedicated to the classic comics hero The Phantom. I also created and maintain the Phantom 2040 Archive and am a regular contributor on the PhantomWiki.
I’m a huge geek and collector with a strong love for comics, SEGA and their mascot Sonic the Hedgehog, as well as the fantasy writings of Tolkien, Neil Gaiman, Branden Sanderson and sci-fi such as Ghostbusters, Doctor Who, The Matrix and Back To the Future.

I’ve been holding onto this for a while as I didn’t want to jinx it. Now having been working on it for four months-ish with the contracts signed I feel it’s safe (touch wood). I’ve been commissioned by a White Owl Books here in the UK to write a book on the history of SEGA!…

Phantom 2040 Archive Moved to MediaWiki
One of my passion projects, the Phantom 2040 Archive which, as the name probably gave away, aims to archive all aspects of the brilliant Phantom 2040 animated series, has been moved to a new home – MediaWiki. Unfortunately, the service I had been using to host the Archive, which was based upon Notion was proving…
