Z.M. Thomas

is a Native American (Dakota Mdewakanton Sioux) comic book writer and publisher from St. Paul, Minnesota. In the summer of 2004, he established Trepidation Comics and wrote his first book, Echoes of Dawn, at that time. Wanting to expand beyond just horror, Z.M. began to delve into satire, creating his first book Roe vs Abe released in March of 2012.

After finding success in the satire genre, Z.M. created the Bible 2, and Joseph Smith in Space. Most recently, he has attempted to write an ALL AGES graphic novel Trash & Can-It with his two sons.

However, without forgetting his horror roots, Z.M. has continued to write several titles including The 11th Hour, Dead Reckoning and his most recent project, The Biotic Crisis.

He is currently working on a Native American Steampunk limited series inspired by his Dakota Mdewakanton Sioux family titled Sioux Falls.
