The Devastator is an independent publication founded in 2009 by Geoffrey Golden and Amanda Meadows, two comedy writer-editors from Los Angeles. The Devastator is a new and audacious book series of satirical writing, parody and original comics. We feature a mix of upcoming and renowned writers and artists. The Devastator publishes quarterly, which naturally means twice a year.To print the book, we shot a trailer video with our friend James Urbaniak and took it to a new creative fundraising platform, Kickstarter.com. Amazingly, strangers clicked and gave us money on the promise of being potentially cool. Now, we're in stores across the country, distributed internationally, available on digital comics site WOWIO, and our own storefront at devastatorquarterly.com/shop.Our writers and artists are enormously talent folks who've worked for shows like "The Simpsons," "The Daily Show," "The Colbert Report," and Adult Swim. Our artists are also published by comics greats like DC Comics, BOOM! Studios, Drawn and Quarterly, and Fantagraphics. Some of our artists have even won Eisner and Ignatz awards. Our comedy writers have written for The Onion, McSweeney's, National Lampoon, CollegeHumor, Funny or Die, UCB comedy, and countless terrible places too!"Devastator is poised to start picking up the slack left by the decline of magazines like Mad, Cracked or even Lampoon, with a smart mix of humorous prose and comics." –Jeffrey Brown, author of Clumsy and Incredible Change-Bots
