	'''Draxhall Jump''' is a [[Toronto]]-based studio, driven primarily by comic book artist Ken Lashley, that has worked on a variety of multimedia projects such as ''Buffy the Vampire Slayer'' comics, the early 2000s return of [[G.I.

Amongst Transfandom, they are best known for creating concept art for the [[Beast Machines: Transformers (toyline)\|''Beast Machines'' toyline]] and the cancelled [[Transtech\|''Transtech'' toyline]].
