Jeff Krell
created the groundbreaking comic strip Jayson, which debuted in the Philadelphia Gay News in 1983. By 1985 Jayson had achieved national prominence in Gay Comix, where the strip was named Most Popular Feature. Jayson then became a staple in Leyland Publications' Meatmen series of gay male comics anthologies, reaching nearly twenty volumes. In 1990 Jayson debuted in national syndication and, in collaboration with singer/songwriters Ron Romanovsky and Paul Phillips, became an off-Broadway Jayson musical which ran for 10 weeks in the summer of 1998. In 2005 Krell published two well received retrospectives
" Jayson Best of the 80s" and "Jayson Bets of the 90s", in 2008
"Jason Goes to Hollywood", in 2011 "Jayson Hets a Job" edited by Prism Comics. Jeff Krell is the translator of some
Ralf Konig's graphic novels. Jayson has become a gay icon; the stories of Jayson and his friends through big city adventures or in the narrow-minded hometown, are simple, the laughs more close to a smile, the characters a little bit too stereotyped, but it's a classic.
