Revealed! by Erik Lundorf

Revealed! is Erik’s debut graphic novel. It is a brush-inked, hand lettered, 84-page flashback amidst a 1990s gender reveal baby shower set in the American Midwest.

Ride the wave with Professor Ron Daltron through a 1970s high school flashback, where a fresh-faced, lonesome Ron yearns to do whatever it takes to make friends. Ron’s nostalgic spiraling is triggered while attending his long-lost cousin’s gender-reveal baby shower set in the 1990’s American Midwest. Both the excavation into Ron’s past, along with the present-day buildup towards the creative yet questionable gender-reveal, comingle in a quirky double helix amidst a crowd of oddball party goers.

Hello! I am an illustrator, designer, and cartoonist in Indianapolis, IN. I graduated from DePauw University’s studio art program in ‘09 with a concentration in oil painting. Most of my twenties were spent experimenting in a variety of creative outlets, from bluegrass circles to improv comedy groups, all the while steadily growing my illustrative work. I have a great passion for making visual art with a narrative focus. In 2016 I became a contracted illustrator for the China-based English teaching school, USA English, producing monthly educational content with the same reoccurring animal cartoon characters. Additionally, I take on a wide variety of one-off freelance work, from designing murals for The Indy Arts Council and the Indiana Pacers, to making startup company mascots and logo designs.

When I am not focused on commissioned work, I pour my time into telling stories in the comics medium. In the summer of 2023, I released my debut graphic novel titled “Revealed!”, a brush-inked, hand lettered, 84-page flashback amidst a 1990s gender reveal baby shower set in the American Midwest.

Currently, I reside in Indianapolis with my wife and twin boys. We don’t have a pet, but I am trying to convince my wife to let me get a kitty. Thanks for your time!
