When Hartley Lin began publishing comics in an undergraduate student newspaper at McGill University, he wanted to keep this creative outlet a secret from his classmates and therefore published under a pseudonym. Later, while working for the Ontario government, he began publishing his indie comic Pope Hats<\/em> under the pseudonym Ethan Rilly. His debut graphic novel Young Frances<\/em>, issued under Lin’s true name, was first serialized in Pope Hats<\/em>. This highly acclaimed comic was awarded Doug Wright, Ignatz, and Joe Schuster awards. It is now published and distributed by AdHouse Books. Lin\/Rilly also has a growing body of freelance illustration credits. Born in Toronto, Lin now lives in Montreal.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
