Jonathan Rosenberg was born on November 27, 1973, in a move some say was intended to distract the public from the ongoing and intensifying Watergate scandal. Collusion between Nixon and Rosenberg could never be proven, although historians point to an 18-minute gap in the tape of Rosenberg's birth where it is thought that conversation between the president and the cartoonist may have occurred.

Rosenberg grew up in a tiny cabin on Long Island, surviving in the harsh suburban environment by clipping coupons from stolen newspapers and trading them in for their 1/20 Cent cash value. it was these newspapers that gave Rosenberg his first glimpse of a better world, a more glamorous world - the world of Cartooning.

He vowed that someday he would invent the Internet so that he could bring high-quality comics to the masses, to those for whom the high cost of newsprint put newspaper comics beyond their reach.

Today, Rosenberg delights tens of thousands of readers each weekday with his anarchic sci-fi comedy, Goats. He is also the creator of cult classic limited-run webcomic megaGAMERZ 3133T and the upcoming weekly journal comic, Team Force Alpha.
