Bio<\/h2>\n
\"Bobby<\/a>
Bobby Bierley is the writer of Yellow.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Robert \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Bobby\u00e2\u20ac\u009d Bierley fancies himself a comics writer, although he also fancies himself a velociraptor sometimes, too, so y\u00e2\u20ac\u2122know\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6consider the source.<\/p>\n

While studying film at the University of Kansas, Bobby began crafting a screenplay about a teenage boy who falls in love with a beautiful zombie girl.<\/p>\n

The story went through several\u00e2\u20ac\u201dOK, many<\/em>\u00e2\u20ac\u201ddrafts, before Bobby had the brilliant\/ridiculous idea to turn it into a comic book. Better yet, he would write it and draw it himself, despite having zero experience doing either. Believe it or not, he managed to self-publish four issues.<\/p>\n

But things didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t really pick up until Bobby met at a famous writer at Planet Comicon who looked over the book and gave him the best advice he\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s ever gotten. That advice: Stop it.<\/p>\n

Bobby retooled the story from the ground up, and relaunched it with a professional artist, colorist, and letterer onboard.<\/p>\n

The series, Yellow<\/em>, is currently published digitally by Viper Comics (The Middleman, Dead@17)<\/em>, although you can still pick up a paper copy here and there if you know the right people.<\/p>\n

Bobby still lives in Kansas City, Missouri, with his lovely wife Emily. They have three dogs and no clean carpets.<\/p>\n
