Jason Shiga (born 1976) is an independent author of {{comicbooks}} and {{newspaper comics}}. He generally draws his characters in a very cartoonish art style, which [[ArtStyleDissonance contrasts heavily]] with the serious (or at least mock-serious) and [[GrotesqueCute occasionally violent]] turns his stories take. Various puzzles also figure in his stories, as Shiga is a Mathematics major and fan of logical puzzles.

* ReusedCharacterDesign: In the tradition of other great Asian cartoonists like OsamuTezuka, the characters in his comics are designed to appear as if they're actors playing different parts across different productions. For example, Sara from ''Empire State'', Sarah from ''Demon'', Finch from ''Bookhunter'' and Jackson's girlfriend from ''Double Happiness'', are all played by the same "actress".

!!Tropes common to many of Shiga's works include:
* AsianAndNerdy: His protagonists tend to be, perhaps as a consequence of [[AuthorAvatar being based on the man himself]].

* ShownTheirWork: Reading his work will teach you more than you ever thought you wanted to know about practical mathematics, library science, 1970s phone phreaking, Chinese-American culture and any number of other subjects.
* WritersCannotDoMath: Averted to hell and gone.
