Returning for 2022!

In 2015, Steffon Thomas along with his business partner, Christopher Ikpoh, cofounded The Creative Extreme, an entertainment company that specializes in original content creation. TCE launched with PROJECT365, in which one original comic book-style character was released every day of the year in 2016. Each profile included a full color image and power ratings, as well as character specs and a complete backstory. Additionally, each character’s individual story built on a larger multi-level narrative that progressed throughout the year, which meant reading from January 1st to December 31st was like diving into a 365-chapter saga. The project ultimately yielded over 500 original characters and dozens of major storylines and since then Steffon and the TCE team have continued to expand the multiverse with comics, graphic novels, web-novels, short stories, anthology books, and short films. Furthermore, TCE has recently engaged in talks with several production companies and streaming services with the prospects of bringing their stories to the big and small screens. 

Steffon serves as CEO, co-head writer and editor-in-chief of The Creative Extreme, while also working as an independent author, professional freelance writer, and creative consultant for a wide array of clients.
