Kaja Foglio is a Seattle-based writer, artist and
publisher. She founded Studio Foglio, LLC in 2003 as a
venue for her Magic the Gathering art prints, but quickly
expanded into publishing. She co-writes the comic book
Girl Genius with her husband Phil, and is the chief graphic
designer and Web mistress for Studio Foglio and Airship
Entertainment.
Phil Foglio has been drifting through existence these
last two decades, pretty much doing what ever he felt like, as
long as he could make money at it. That would include
Girl Genius, the comic to which he currently devotes his
pencilling and co-writing skills.
He has done comics for DC, Marvel, Comico, First Comics,
Dark Horse and WARP. He was a member of three
improvisational comedy groups and was the youngest person to
ever receive a Hugo Award. When Phil was an assistant
manager at a pet shop, he redesigned the layout so that all of
the animals were displayed by color. He is interested in
gardening, old books, fine dining, travel and fun things you
can do while wearing a Godzilla costume. As a result, he
is now married to the lovely Kaja Foglio, who shares many of
these interests, and puts up with the Godzilla costumes.

David Franklin is best known to Sci-Fi/Fantasy fans as
the consummate Peacekeeper officer Captain Braca on Farscape. Stepping on board the command carrier at
the end of season one he has become a firm favorite with
audiences, who have grown to love and to hate him as Braca,
does whatever it takes to stay alive and advance in his quest
for survival and power.
Another memorable role for David is that of Brutus in
seasons four and five of Xena Warrior Princess.
He has also appeared in the series Time Trax and Flipper and movies of the week include Survive the
Savage Sea and The Flood. Latest features
include Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles, The
Crocodile Hunter, and Matrix: Reloaded.
