Cliff Ming-Si Chen, otherwise known as Ming Chen, is an actor, podcaster, reality television personality, and webmaster. He co-hosts the I Sell Comics! and Ming & Mike Show podcasts with Mike Zapcic and also starred in the AMC reality series Comic Book Men. He was also featured as a voice actor in Jay & Bob’s Super Groovy Cartoon Movie! in 2013 and again in the 2019 reboot of the movie with the same title.

Chen has participated in several podcasts for SModcast Internet Radio including Tell ‘Em Steve-Dave!, Puck Nuts, and co-hosts I Sell Comics! with Mike Zapcic. In 2012 he began starring with co-workers from Jay and Silent Bob’s Secret Stash including Kevin Smith, Walt Flanagan, Mike Zapcic, and Bryan Johnson on Comic Book Men. Ming is often made fun of as part of his role on Comic Book Men, due to his long friendships with Bryan and Walt. Comic Book Men was shot for seven seasons from 2012 up until 2018.

Ming Chen was born in Ohio and attended the University of Michigan. He graduated with a degree in communications which has certainly come in handy with his chosen career path. He creates effortless conversation and has an interest in all things comedy and comics. His favourite comics include The Avengers, Ex Machina, and Preacher. Chen also does work for two non-profits organisations in Los Angeles. The Street Poets Inc. which aims to create a community with creative projects and The Kenny Gordon Foundation.
