2600 - creator, artist/writer

2600, (the artist formerly known as BAB2600) is the creator and artist for the webcomic Press Start. He lived in Tokyo for awhile where the idea and basic concept for Press Start was born as the ill fated comic "Console Wars." Upon returning back to the states, he approached the "3" (Cap'n, Cycloptic, and Nick) with the idea and thus "Press Start" was born.

2600 spends his days working as a house cleaner, studying for school, and working on the comic. If he has any spare time, which is rare, he plays video games or studies animation. The current system he plays the most is the DS. His favorite systems are between atari 2600, NES, N64, and SEGA SATURN.


Nick (MoonJump) - writer/PR/video media

MoonJump (AKA Nick) is a 27 year old loser and long time gamer. He helps out with many of the comic scripts on the site. While he's not helping his folks out, he kicks back with classics like Link to the Past, Gunstar Heroes, and Super Mario World. His favorite types of games are Action, Fighters and Adventure games.


CyclopticInsight - webmaster/writer, occasional graphic design

CyclopticInsight is 27 and currently unemployed. He has been known to color/draw a comic from time to time, as well as sporadically adding new features to the site. He has an intense dislike of most anime and most Square-developed games made after Chrono Trigger, and he really enjoys pushing people's buttons whenever possible. If FF7 were reality, he'd be the first to piss on Aeris' grave. See? I told you, he's an unapologetic jerk.


Captain Treacherous - writer/editorials

Captain Treacherous is a 27 year old good-for-nothing who contributes editorial posts, ideas and dialogue for the passable comic that is Press Start. He really likes his beat 'em ups and RPGs, and openly cries during epic scenes in movies. He claims it's due to their raw emotional power, but you can be the judge.
