From a young age, all Dean Rankine wanted to do was draw. While today, Dean is a well established Australian comic book artist, he'd still describe himself as a big hairy kid - but a kid who has now worked for a range of companies and a variety of titles including Australian MAD magazine, The Simpsons comic book for Boingo and a cover for the Rick and Morty comic. Dean is now a popular mainstay on the Australian pop culture convention scene, and has developed his own fan following with his popular 'Simpson-ised' portraits of guests at each event.

Dean has also started a recent podcast which we encourage you to check out: it's called The Ogres Basement Podcast, and you should totally check it out.
