"That's right, he's such a nice guy that he's the Getty Images stock photo of a police officer helping a little old lady. First thing that comes up.

"Napijalo is a Portland police officer who's such a nice guy it’s

"He's now raising money in an online Kickstarter campaign
to launch a comic book series inspired by the sleepless nights of his
youth. The story follows a young boy who, after the death of his
parents, must journey into a mystical world of dreams to calm the
nightmares tormenting other children and - ultimately - bring his
parents back."
A recent Bangor Daily News (Bangor, ME) "Seth and the City" article profiled Officer Napijalo and his Gage Hunter comic book ministry.
