Pat got his first professional work back in 1998 on X-Men Unlimited #22. After a then-lesser known
writer with the initials "BKV" vouched for him and helped him land his first paying gig. After that
he began assisting Doug Mahnke on Superman: Man of Steel until he was hired on to Image Comics'
Noble Causes. In 2002 (?) Peter Tomasi came calling and offered Pat his first work with DC Comics on
a series of fill-in issues. JSA, Hawkman :Secret Files, JLA: Welcome to the Working Week, and HERO.
From that time on Pat became the regular artist on Aquaman. His run ended last year as he took on
a brand new title and 5 issue mini-series, Green Lantern CORPS: RECHARGE. After the mini-series
wrapped Pete started Pat on the covers for Robin, and also made him the regular artist on Green
Lantern CORPS (the ongoing series).
Pat regularly attends the San Diego ComiCon, signing at the DC booth and his own table. He has also
attended con's in Chicago, Philadelphia, and of course the FallCon and MicroCon in his home state of
Minnesota.
In 2003 Pat was married and he and his wife welcomed their first super-baby into the world .
