[edit] Artwork
Prior to his interest in becoming a musician, Keely, an avid fan of the X-Men, aspired to be an artist for Marvel Comics. He even noted that, as a reference to Secret Wars, he wanted to include a New Mutants character in the collage cover art of Worlds Apart.[1] Keely has commonly incorporated his drawings and paintings into Trail of Dead's album art and has displayed his works at the RIATS Fest.
