As the creator and writer of “Johnny Scotch,” John Dover has built his Jazz Noir world from the music he’s immersed in on a daily basis and from his travels across the U.S. as a professional musician. John continues to build the “Johnny Scotch” library through short stories and his comic book collaboration with illustrator and story board artist Dan Schaefer. John’s musical world and his writing world also collide with the “Johnny Scotch Vignettes,” a series of musical pieces written by Thomas Barber that incorporate high-energy fusion with the spoken word.
