About Custo

I'm a hip-hop head, comic book aficionado, history nerd, film buff and one of the big bosses here at Dork Mustache. I'm very opinionated. Some say I posses the perfect combination of gangsterism and geekiness, while others have referred to me as "elusive", "unique" and "asshole". When I'm not blogging on Dork Mustache, I enjoy making people uncomfortable and randomly talking to my friends in pompous sounding European accents on the phone. I like things that rhyme. Follow me @VanCusto.
