Joel Rodriguez

Hi, I’m Joel Rodriguez—a driven entrepreneur guided by growth, grit, and resilience. As CEO of Metal Ninja Studios and host of the Capital of Comics Podcast, I help creatives and entrepreneurs alike tell their stories while crafting my own, like The Dusk County Chronicles and Before My Eyes. In 2025, I was inducted into Marquis Who's Who as a Top Professional and featured in The Enterprise World Magazine as one of the "Most Visionary Business Leaders Shaping the Future of Comics - 2026". At my core, I’m a man of faith, a husband, father, and endurance athlete who embraces hardship as a pathway to strength and resilience. Whether it’s competing in obstacle course races, honing my crafts, or striving to be 1% better every day, I’m committed to leaving a lasting legacy of growth and purpose - all while helping others do the same! Join me for insights on family, fitness, creativity, and building a life worth living!
