He makes pictures that have adorned various album covers and has been featured in The Boston Globe and The Weekly Dig. Devlin has also shown work in Boston, New York City and Chicago and feels funny writing in the third person. Also a co-founder of Acronym Comics, an independent comics press, he illustrates the adventures of "Citizen Elvis" and writes/paints the thriller "The Alchemist." His favorite pie is pumpkin.
