I forget what all this summary business is supposed to be about, so here's my stab i the dark at it. The person I chose was Scott Kurtz:
Scott Kurtz is a professional cartoonist born in Santa Cruz, California in March of 1971. He's well known for his online comic PvP (or Player versus Player) which he launched in May of 1998 working for a client. A little more than a year later in June of 1999, Kurtz reworked the comic PvP and relaunched it as version 2.0.
PvP (or Player versus Player) is a comic that chronicles the adventures of a fictitious video gaming magazine company and the employees who work there. The main cast is comprised of 5 characters and is accompanied by a supporting cast of over 20 re-occuring characters. By 2005, PvP had reached a readership of 100,000 unique readers a day. It now currently has a readership of about 150,000.
For his work on PvP, Scott Kurtz was nominated for the Eisner Award for Best Writer/Artist in the Humor category in 2005, and received another nomination in 2006 for Best Digital Comic. In 2010 his work on PvP also gained him a nomination for a Harvey Award for Best Online Comic Work.
