Jean Snow is Production Services Manager at Ubisoft Shanghai.
Previously, he was based in Tokyo for over 15 years, where he lived and breathed design, pop culture, and gaming, sustained by an unhealthy addiction to magazines and frequent visits to his favorites cafes (he was also Executive Director at PechaKucha). He has reported on these obsessions for various online/offline publications, including the following: Time, Inside (Australian Design Review), Gizmodo, Gridskipper, Kotaku, 1UP, Tokyo Q, Superfuture, OK Fred, Arthur Frommer’s Budget Travel, I.D. (International Design), Metropolis, Azure, MoCo Loco, Kateigaho International Edition, Wired’s Game|Life, PingMag, CNNGo, Phaidon, and The Japan Times.

THE MAKESHIFT MIRACLE by Jim Zubkavich is the second comic offering (after Scott McCloud’s THE RIGHT NUMBER, that I mentioned the other day) to be offered through the new BitPass system. For only 0.99$ you can read what looks to be a very good 172 page graphic novel online. I haven’t had the time to read it yet, but will probably do so this weekend.
