About Us
Royal Zealots
Calvin W.
My real name is Calvin but my friends and family call me Cj! I was born and raised in Bakersfield, CA. Growing up, I watched my father always treat people with compassion and kindness and my mother worked in the medical field, so this is where my inspiration to help others comes from!
As a child I was a Batman fan but in 2008 when Iron Man released in theaters, I was instantly hooked and became an MCU fanatic! I decided to combine my passion for helping others and love for Comic Book Movies and thus Royal Zealots was born in 2018!

Richard T.
My name is Richard, also known as “Richiiiieeee!!!”. I was born and raised in a Los Angeles suburb called San Gabriel. I’m the youngest of 3 boys. I always looked up to my older brothers and its them who introduced me to the Star Wars trilogy, and fell in love with the franchise. Darth Vader, although the villain, is my favorite character of all time. Growing up, Batman and The Punisher were my favorite comic characters. Something about vigilantes and anti-heroes were the ones that caught my attention. Im also a sports fanatic, especially in football and hockey. Im just glad to be a part of The Royal Zealots committee to have fun and help impact lives of real life heroes.

Mike D.
So where do I start? My name is Mike, but I go by as many nicknames as there are comic book characters. Born in Huntington Park, but later my family moved us to Bakersfield, CA. Growing up, I was a mixture of jock and a nerd. I really do enjoy meeting new people and developing connections; you have to treat others the way you want to be treated. Most of my life, I always liked helping the communities I’m in. Even now, with my job, I help non-profit organizations throughout the United States.
My entire life I was into comic books, fantasy, and any fiction. Reading comics is something I have been doing for most of my life and continue to. I can easily be distracted if someone asks me what I think is the best animated DC movie or who is the best Marvel character we have seen displayed in live action. I run in lots of circles and connect with a wide array of fandoms like Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, Monsterverse, Anime, and others as I expand my range of media that I consume. When Cj came to me to be the nerd he needed for Royal Zealots, it was an instant yes! Not only because he is one of my best friends since college, but because I love just nerding out! Hope you all enjoy our mission!
