Stephen Shaskan

STEPHEN SHASKAN has always loved comics—reading them and making them! He grew up reading Marvel, DC, Harvey Comics, and Mad magazine and created his first comic, Super Grandpa, when he was in elementary school. He now creates the graphic chapter book series Pizza and Taco and is super excited to be sharing all he’s learned in this special activity book. Stephen lives with his wife and frequent collaborator, Trisha Speed Shaskan in Minneapolis. Visit him at online and follow him on social media to see more Pizza and Taco content.
