Salgood Sam, aka Max Douglas, grew up in Toronto, but now resides in Montreal. He’s been a freelance artist for nearly three decades, working mainly in comics, animation and illustration, with a side order of graphic design, concept art and mural painting. For the last five years, he’s been a part time art teacher. He starting publishing comics in zines in the late 80s, and started making comics professionally in the early 90s. His work has been published notably by Image, IDW/NMK, Marvel and DC, and outside of comics his clients have included The Criterion Collection, Bravo TV, Nokia, Nelvana Studios, and Fox among many others. His newest project is Mind Engine. 

Mind Engine: Ignition Sequence is a personal comic anthology. According to Salgood, ‘The project gets its name from growing up in the ’70s; being the son of an artist and a poet mechanic; his personal creative process; all things brain/cognition and more.’ The comics are described as ‘political and social commentary in nature, addressing a range of issues that he cares about personally.’
