Meet Mickey!

Mickey was born in Cairo, but he moved around a bit as a young child, mainly the United Arab Emirates and United States. His whole adult life has been in Egypt, though. Outside of work you’ll usually either find him at the gym, out with his close friends, or at home playing video games. He's a Gemini, although he doesn’t buy into astrology. He's an avid reader, you'll usually find him reading three or four books at the same time. Mickey also sings in a band and plays the guitar! His college major was accounting, but he's never balanced a sheet in his life.

Mickey, what advice would you give your 15 year old self?

Enjoy your lack of responsibility!

Gotten married. Then divorced.

If you were to spend your lifetime advocating a cause, what would it be?

Subverting the stigma surrounding mental health.

Smoking.

The internet, electricity, and Pizza.

What superpower do you wish your pets had?

I’ve had a rotating mélange of cats across the years, but currently I have just two, Kylo and Rey. If I had to have them have a superpower, it would be for them to understand and speak to me. It’s really difficult telling a cat what to do.

Mainly English and Arabic, and I’m trying to learn Spanish.

I once dressed in a burka. They wouldn’t let me into the men’s bathroom.

Favorite musician of all time?

Toss up between Maynard James Keenan of Tool and Matt Bellamy of Muse.

Farscape.

If you could only play three video games for the rest of your life, which ones would they be?

Final Fantasy VII, The Last of Us, and The Witcher.

Darth Vader.

If you could have one superpower, what would it be?

Telekinesis. I’m lazy like that.

Do you think Batman carries snacks with him?

I’ve never seen him eat anything. Have you? I’m going with no.

If you were to host the next comic book convention, who would you want to be your co-host?

Stan Lee.

Do you have a favorite anime?

Not a big anime fan, but Ghost in the Shell is great (the original, not the Hollywood remake).

What’s your online gaming name?

Idlemickey. Which is my handle on all social media and online games if you want to easily find me.
