Author: Percival Constantine
Born and raised in the Chicagoland area, I grew up on a fairly consistent diet of superhero comics, action movies, video games, and TV shows. At the age of ten, I first began writing and I’ve never really stopped.
I’ve been working in publishing since 2005 in various capacities—author, editor, formatter, letterer—and I’ve written books, short stories, comics, and more. I have a Bachelor of Arts in English and Mass Media from Northeastern Illinois University and a Master of Arts in English and Screenwriting from Southern New Hampshire University. My novels have spanned different genres, from urban fantasy (Luther Cross), superhero (Vanguard), mystery (Nakamura Detective Agency), pulp adventure (The Myth Hunter), and more.
I currently live in Japan’s Kagoshima prefecture, where I teach college and university courses. I'm also the host of the Superhero Cinephiles and Japan On Film podcasts.

What’s Ahead in 2024
So this is Twixmas, that strange limbo between Christmas and New Year. Here in Japan, we are on the verge of everything except convenience stores shutting down for about three days and I will be eating nothing but junk food during this time. But I thought I would take this…
