Introductions: Robin Hoelzemann, “Curia Regis”

Hello, hello. I’m Robin, and I am thoroughly convinced that nobody likes bios. So Rosa helped out by writing one for me:

“Robin is the creator of Curia Regis. In her spare time she snatches cats and dresses them as dogs to enter in pet shows. She is a villain.”

I reckon she’d know. In an alternate version of reality, I’m a German-Canadian living in England with thousands of books. I write and illustrate comics, and daylight as a marketing manager. At the moment I’m dedicated to Curia Regis, described by Starburst Magazine as the child of Jane Austen and the Scarlet Pimpernel.

Curia Regis is long form comic moonlighting as a webcomic. It’s about how people act under pressure, and the consequences of those actions. It’s about what happens when someone takes your ability to make your own decisions. At its heart, it’s about a man who should have been King, and the shit he pulls to make it happen.

It’s definitely a slow burn, with a focus on characters over quick plot advancement. Each chapter adds another dimension, and I’m very excited to see all your faces when things finally click together.

Come join the party and read it online at whatido.co.uk, where it updates every Monday and Wednesday for your viewing pleasure! I’m also active on tumblr and twitter, where I post comic updates, extra art, and my opinions on just about everything.
