Chase is now the Episodic Director at Marvel Animation Studios working on X-Men 97', but got his start copying pages from the comic books his grandpa would get him in town. This led him on an incredible journey from being offered a job at Marvel at 19 (and turning it down), moving to Korea while working as a comic illustrator, and more, and being supported by the few other Black visionaries in his industry.
