J’Marcus, Resident King of Snacks
He’s my little shadow, my emotional support man, and the reason I get out of bed most mornings. Loyal. Curious. A little dramatic. Would fight for snacks. Would die for me.
Every publication has a staff page. This is ours.
Un.Common.Ones is a series about the people who make a scene feel like home. Before Nº 001, there was Nº 000: the profile that set the bar for everyone after him.
His duties here are broad. Morale. Snack quality control. First read on every issue, which he performs by sitting on it. He has never missed a deadline, mostly because he has never been given one.
