Jeph Jacques (born (1980-06-17)June 17, 1980) writes and illustrates the webcomics Questionable Content and "indietits". He was born in Rockville, Maryland, graduated from Hampshire College with a degree in music, and lives in Easthampton, Massachusetts with his fiancée (and business manager) Cristi.[1]

Questionable Content

Questionable Content (QC) is a comedic slice-of-life webcomic that Jacques started on August 1, 2003. It was initially published two days a week, and then moved up to three updates a week when Jacques published strip #16.[2] On September 4, 2004 Jacques quit his day job to begin publishing QC every weekday. Jeph can be considered one of the small number of professional web cartoonists, as he and his fiancée Cristi both make their living through QC.

Other artistic endeavors

Jeph is a member of Dayfree Press, joining forces with artists like Christian Fundin and Pontus Madsen (Little Gamers), Sam Logan (Sam and Fuzzy), and Ryan North (Dinosaur Comics).

Jacques launched "indietits" as an anonymous side project on April 1, 2005 to use ideas that did not fit into Questionable Content's setting. Compared to Questionable Content, it is a simple strip, eschewing detailed art and linear storyline in favour of reusable pre-drawn panels and one-shot jokes.

To further broaden his drawing limits, Jeph created Jephdraw to place unnamed drawings of his onto the internet. He puts anything from favored panels to simple sketches for others to see what he does in his spare time.

Jeph also records music, both under his own name and as Deathmøle (Marten's band in the strip), to which he posts links on his LiveJournal. Most of Deathmøle's songs are Unicorn themed with stereotypical fantasy metal titles such as "Unicorns Will Kill Your Children" and "With Flowing Manes They Charge".

Honors

Jacques was the Artist Guest of Honor at the 2006 Albacon.[3]
