Krešimir (Misch) Certić was born in 1973 in Zagreb. He spent his childhood in Kutina and studied at the Faculty of Graphic Design in Zagreb. He runs his own creative studio as a designer, illustrator, animation master and comic book author. In interpreting his creative biography he always stresses comic book as its starting point: “Comic book definitely came first, that is where it all began. As a kid I started with Bonelli’s comic, to Alan Ford, to Stripoteka, Strip Art, to the French New Wave graphic novel and independent American editions.”
