At the age of 3, Adam Johnson and his family were shipwrecked off the coast of Madagascar. As the only known survivor of the crash, Adam Johnson spent the following 11 years in the sole company of a small pack of wolves who raised him as one of their own. In the year 1987, he was finally rescued by a passing circus ship visiting Madagascar to capture exotic animals for their show. He was brought aboard to join the eclectic group of sideshow oddities that performed their feats of curiosity for circus goers. As he traveled the world with the circus sideshow, he honed his skills as an illustrator/designer–scrawling small pictographs in the dirt with a stick to communicate with anyone that would take the time to interpret meaning in these otherwise meaningless markings. As time went on, Adam Johnson eventually made his way to America–the land of opportunity where he worked in the ad industry for many years banging away at a keyboard and scribbling with crayons and markers.
