In short

Joe Ollmann (born March 25, 1966, in Hamilton, Ontario) is a Canadian cartoonist. Ollmann's cartooning style has been described as "scratchy angular angry big steaming slice-of-life comics” and the cartoonist Seth has called Ollmann “one of our medium’s great writers.” Ollmann grew up on a Christmas tree farm near Hamilton, Ontario and self-published his first 3-issue comic book series, Dirty Nails Comics, beginning in 1988. He contributed cartoons to The Hamilton Spectator in the early 1990s, and had a long-running strip in Exclaim!
