My name is Darryl Knickrehm, comic artist for Simulation Theory, Feeder, The Argus, The Immortal Resurrected,and  Lost Souls: Haywire. You can call me Darryl, or what people call me around this neck of the woods: Dariru. That’s because I live in Japan. I’m originally from the sunny shores of Orange County, California, but somehow found myself calling Japan home. How did I end up here, you ask? Head on over to my blog Drawn to Japan to find out more.

I haven’t inked pages with Dark Horse, Image, BOOM, or the Big Two. But someday I hope to. My works have found a home at Comixology, Source Point Press, Sumerian, Scout, Action Lab, and 215 Ink (now Invader). I’ve also been fortunate to share the creative stage with incredible minds—Mark Bertolini, Curt Pires, Trevor Boyd, David Pepose, and Marcu Knoesen. Each collaboration has been a great experience and a testament to the beauty of shared creativity.

This year I started Dreamforge Comics, a label for sci-fi comics. I’m planning to release some of my future work there.
