Jackson Robinson was 2 years old when he was dealt a bad hand. “I choked on a corn dog,” he says, a common accident that uncommonly cascaded into pneumonia, a removed lung, and nine months in the hospital.
To keep him busy during his convalescence, Robinson’s mother got him into drawing, a hobby that eventually led to art school in his home state of Texas, then a gig creating illustrations for Star Wars toy packages and Coca-Cola cans, and, after that, a stint as a video game artist.
