Mike Krahulik
From Penny Arcade
Michael Krahulik is the artist from the popular webcomic, Penny Arcade. His comic and internet alter ego is Johnathan "Gabe" Gabriel.
[edit] Personal Life
He lives in Seattle, Washington with his wife, Kara Krahulik, to whom he proposed in a special edition of Penny Arcade in 1999.
On September 9, 2004, he and his wife became parents to a son, Gabriel Aiden Krahulik.
[edit] Alter Egos
Gabe has several author insertion characters both inside and outside the continuity of the comic.
- Gabe - One of the two main characters of Penny Arcade. He is patterned off of the Krahulik and his interactions with co-author Jerry Holkins.
- The Cardboard Tube Samurai - An edo period Japanese samurai who bears a striking resemblance to Gabe and wields his favorite tube, albeit several hundred years earlier.
- Jim Darkmagic - Krahulik's D&D character, a shamelessly self promoting wizard.
