Steve Oliff

Preiss gave Oliff his first major coloring job (on a Shadowjack story in The Illustrated Roger Zelazny).

The Armature character first appeared in ads in Spawn and Youngblood comics, and in a back-up story in issue 14 of The Maxx.

From 2003 to the present, Armature has been a weekly comic strip in Oliff's local newspaper, the Independent Coast Observer.

In 2005, Oliff collaborated with Cheri Carlstedt on a history of his hometown, Point Arena, California.

The Early Days of Point Arena: A Pictorial History of the City and Township was published by Olyoptics.
