[edit] History
EvilJim stumbled onto the internet scene in the early months of 2000, on the starmen.net forums. Almost immediately, EvilJim began to develop a kind of notoriety as a puzzling indivdual with a random, flighty personality. Prone to fits of nonsensical jargon and bizarre observations, many were left baffled by what seemed to be a cry for attention.
It wasn't until early 2002 that EvilJim's online character began to actually develop. When Xodnizel, starmen.net's resident code monkey, folded her Mad Scientist board on the aformentioned forums, EvilJim found it difficult to find an outlet for his over-the-top humour. As luck would have it, a link on Neil Cicierega's Animutation website led him to Chicanery, an EarthBound webcomic featuring copious levels of silliness. Immediately signing onto the associated message boards, EvilJim was inspired to form a new online attitude, one more in keeping with (though not always equal to) the level of wit Chicanery seemed to embue.
As the years rolled on, so did the number of communities EvilJim associated himself with. In total, he has belonged to the Eternal Rain boards from 2001-2003, the Star Fox Network from 2002-2005, and numerous other art and video game communities, such as Tracy Butler's foxprints.com and allrpg.com. He currently presides as Moderator over the Disaster Labs message boards, the latest incarnation of the group that made Chicanery and Arfenhouse.
EvilJim Christo also has his own DeviantArt website and LiveJournal, which have become his primary sources of expression.
In terms of notability, EvilJim has contributed to Disaster Labs features including Arfenhouse: The Movie 4 (coming soon), wrote and directed an acclaimed stage adaptation of "Rain Man", and has been published in popular worldwide journals, such as "What If" magazine.
