Planet Valva

Navigation

Welcome!

Howdy. My name is Anthony Valva. This is my personal website where I share my thoughts, newspaper articles, radio shows and cool things I find online. For work, I'm currently the station manager at my college's radio station. I host, produce and edit five radio shows a week on the radio, two weekly TV shows for the college TV station and write a weekly technology column for the college newspaper.

I hope to eventually become a professional videogame journalist or work for an Internet television company like TWiT.tv, Mevio, or Revision3.

When I'm not working, I read books, enjoy viewing Asian cinema, work out, play videogames, drink tea and watch at least one episode Iron Chef Japan everyday. Thanks for visiting!

The art is done by Ben Templesmith. The same guy who did 30 Days of Night (one of my favorite comics). His art style is definitely present here and it looks friggen sweet! Comic goes on sale August 4th. Click the thumbnail for high res.
