Christopher Sequeira (also published as Chris G.C. Sequeira, Christopher G.C. Sequeira, C.G.C. Sequeira) is a Sydney-based Australian writer and artist who works predominantly in the speculative fiction realm, especially with the horror, science fiction and mystery genres. His published work includes poetry, prose (especially short fiction), film and television scripts and comicbook scripts.

A keen Holmes enthusiast, Sequeira is a longtime member of the Sherlock Holmes Society "The Sydney Passengers", and has played both Holmes and Professor Moriarty in various dramatic re-enactments (including a filmed-for-Australian-national-TV segment wherein he portrayed Moriarty's plunge to his death in battle with Holmes at Reichenbach Falls - in this case Leura Falls outside Sydney served the purpose).

He has self-published and published the works of others under the imprints of Opal Press Australia and Sequence Productions Pty Ltd. Sequeira has been a regular guest at comics and pop culture expos in Australia including Supanova and Armageddon.

Sequeira's association with cape-wearing pop-icons continued when his wedding ceremony in 1999 was covered on Australian national TV. This costume-party marriage featured Australia's first use of a celebrant in the persona of Elvis Presley (Sequeira himself was dressed as Count Dracula, wife Jacqui was the Countess Dracula, groomsmen were Batman villains Penguin, Two-Face and Riddler, and bridesmaids were styled as movie goddesses Marilyn Monroe, Vivien Leigh and Elizabeth Taylor). Sequeira and his future wife had persuaded Sydney civil wedding celebrant Russell Hansen to become Australia's first Elvis-styled celebrant, a role for which Hansen is now locally well-known.

Sequeira, who lives with his wife and two children in Sydney, continues to write for various pop culture projects including the Boss Beat television project for brother Jonathan Sequeira.
