Hi there, I’m Nate Powell.

I was born in 1978 in Little Rock, Arkansas. I began self-publishing comics and zines in 1992 at age 14, and graduated from School of Visual Arts in 2000.

My work includes Swallow Me Whole (Ignatz Winner — Outstanding Debut; Top Shelf, 2008), Please Release (Top Shelf, 2006), Sounds of Your Name (Microcosm, 2006), It Disappears (Soft Skull, 2004), Tiny Giants (Soft Skull, 2003), the Walkie Talkie series, and contributions to Meathaus, Paper Rodeo, and Eisner-nominated Syncopated anthologies.

I’ve also done a variety of workshops, discussions, and presentations for Alachua County Public Libraries (Gainesville, FL); Arkansas Literary Festival (Little Rock, AR); Indiana University (Bloomington, IN); Monroe County Public Library/Plan-It-X Fest (Bloomington, IN); and the University of Florida Comics Conference (Gainesville, FL). Over the years I’ve done illustration work for the record labels Relapse, Ebullition, Prank, Clean Plate, and Plan-it-X, as well as the zines and magazines HeartattaCk, Rolling Thunder, Cometbus, New York Yankees Magazine, Clamor, Little Rock Monthly, and Arkansas Democrat-Gazette.

Since 1999 I’ve worked full-time for adults with developmental disabilities. I also managed DIY punk record label Harlan Records from 1994-2007, and performed in the bands Soophie Nun Squad, Wait, Boomfancy, Gioteens, and Divorce Chord. I’ve lived in Bloomington, Indiana since 2004, and I like it very much.

I do not eat meat, but do drive way too much. I can also be a little surly at times, but you should just feed me and I'll feel much better.
