Andy Schmidt is a comic book writer and Senior Editor for IDW Publishing, as well as a pretty frequent goofer. But he's doing his best to improve.
Before working for IDW, he was an editor at Marvel Comics, where he handled most titles under the "Marvel Heroes" brand as well as numerous of their top titles.
He also edited IDW's G.I. Joe and Star Trek titles before moving on to the Transformers brand, first as assistant editor, and then replacing Denton J. Tipton as lead editor. To say that he was overwhelmed with how obsessive Transfans are with the continuity would be an understatement.
He also owns and teaches at the Comics Experience school of comics in California.
