JL;DR SUMMARY Ari Gross, a machine learning engineer and comic book writer, combines his diverse backgrounds to create a supernatural comic book, 'Wardens,' set in 1920s Toronto. A way out west there was a fella, fella I want to tell you about, fella by the name of Jeff Lebowski.

  • And a lot about where he lived, likewise. But then again, maybe that's why I found the place s'durned innarestin'.
