Andy Hartzell's first graphic novel, Fox Bunny Funny, was a New York Times holiday pick. He has contributed to many anthologies, including No Straight Lines (Eisner nomination) and Qu33r (Ignatz Award), and he received an Xeric award for his first comic, Bread & Circuses. He makes his personal paradise in Oakland, CA, where his partner Ron tends the garden, and his boxador Louis tears it up again. He works as an interaction designer and creative strategist when he's not making comics.

"I could never get behind that business about a fruit that exists only so you can't eat it. Felt like a badly written story. Hartzell's version is much more convincing."—Eddie Campbell, From Hell, Alec, The Years Have Pants"Andy Hartzell's Monday offers up a strange and delightful peek into the quirky heart of humanity. As funny as it is strange."—Gene Luen Yang, American Born Chinese"If one measures a book by delight, Andy Hartzell’s Monday offers a treasury on every page. Equal parts Borgesian tale—a lost book of Biblical creation—and allegory of artistic creativity, Monday bristles with sharp humor, vivid characters, beautiful drawing, and inventive comix craft. Picture Mark Twain’s Diaries of Adam and Eve and Lynd Ward siphoned through Mad Magazine. The result offers an Eden one never wants to leave."—Peter Rostovsky, author of Damnation Diaries
