Aaron broke into the comic industry in 2001, after winning a Marvel talent search where he submitted a Wolverine story script. The story was published in Wolverine #175 and led to him working on other huge projects for the publisher such as Wolverine: Weapon X, Ghost Rider, The Incredible Hulk, Thor: God of Thunder, The Mighty Thor, Doctor Strange, and The Avengers. Early in his career he also worked on titles for DC Comics' Vertigo imprint like Hellblazer, The Other Side and Scalped. In addition to working for Marvel and DC, Aaron has also created a successful creator owned series titled Southern Bastards, published by Image Comics that has earned him two Eisner Awards.

“We can’t wait to have Jason join us for this exclusive In-House Private Signing event,” said Brittany McManus, CGC Signature Series Director. “He’s a true talent! We can’t wait to see the awesome submissions that come in!”
