Career
Prior to pursuing a career as a comic book writer, Quinn had worked various positions as a technical writing consultant, building superintendent, and as a teacher of writing and literature.[2] Quinn worked at DC Comics and produced This Year's Girl and Arona, which although allegedly creator-owned, were structured in such a way that the creator held the copyright while DC Comics held the trademark.[2] Quinn's frustrations from the handling of creator ownership led to him partnering with Tim Vigil as a co-publisher at Rebel Studios.[2]
