One girl brought a stack of comic books, knowing Lucas loved them. She told him he could look at them if he promised not to pester them. He agreed.

Upon graduating, he began his career do- ing numerous art shows, then transitioned to art director for various commercial companies such as Taylor-Chalmers, Bick Advertising and Odegard Advertising. In his spare time, he used his artistic abilities to help various non-profi ts. One day after gradu- ating from college, Lu- cas and his sister were reminiscing about Katy Keene and Woggon. Through his sister’s encouragement, Lucas placed a call to Wog- gon. From that call, a friendship was born, a life was changed.
