Roddy Williams

Originally from Halifax, Roddy enjoys a mostly vagabond lifestyle with his wife, a varying number of cats and a troubling amount of comic books. He also draws and writes stuff too. Roddy started writing SINCLAIR as a screenplay before FINALLY turning it into a comic book in 2022. During this time Roddy met Omar, who blatantly used Roddy as a guinea pig for testing espresso drinks. Whilst Roddy was testing the upward limits for caffeine ingestion, many clear and rational thoughts were had twixt the two, one of which being: "Y'know what's cooler than comics? Comics with beer." Omar and Roddy were off on a merry adventure that is now Wayside Comics and Cocktails. On this journey, another thought was hatched: "Y'know what's cooler than comics with beer and cocktails? Making our own comics." It was around this time that Roddy also finally met Allison and Jordan, and Wayside Creative was...created.
