Bill SienkiewiczLegend

Creators whose work defined the medium and still shapes how comics look today. See all legends

Comic ArtistIllustratorPainter

Sienkiewicz treats a comics page as a surface to attack, with paint, collage, photography, scratched ink and outright abstraction. The New Mutants and Elektra: Assassin showed mainstream readers a superhero book could look like a gallery piece, and that permission runs through decades of cartooning since.

David FinchMajor

Comic Artist, Cover Artist, Penciller

Finch renders in dense hatching and deep shadow, giving his heroes bulk and menace. He drew New Avengers and Moon Knight at Marvel before moving to DC for Batman: The Dark Knight and Wonder Woman.

Frank MillerLegend

Comic Artist, Penciller, Writer

Miller writes and draws in hard shadow and clipped rhythm. His Daredevil brought crime-fiction structure into superhero comics, The Dark Knight Returns and Batman: Year One recast Batman for a generation, and Sin City stripped the whole approach down to black-and-white noir.

Marc SilvestriLegend

Comic Artist, Inker, Penciller

Silvestri draws in sharp angles, whipping hair and tense wiry anatomy, a look that defined a stretch of Uncanny X-Men and Wolverine. He co-founded Image Comics and built Top Cow, home to Witchblade, Cyberforce and The Darkness.

Andy KubertMajor

Comic Artist, Letterer, Penciller

Andy Kubert stages superhero stories like film, with wide establishing shots, clean sightlines and a steady build to the hit. He drew X-Men through the nineties, then Wolverine: Origin, Marvel 1602, Batman and Son and Flashpoint.

John Romita JrLegend

Artist, Comic Artist, Penciller

Romita builds figures from blocky, weighted shapes that land with real force. Across four decades he has drawn most of the Marvel line, from Amazing Spider-Man and Daredevil to Thor and Uncanny X-Men, plus Kick-Ass with Mark Millar and a run on Superman.

Adam KubertMajor

Comic Artist, Penciller

Adam Kubert draws with thick, expressive line weight and a real feel for impact. His Wolverine and Hulk pages are bruising, and he has moved between Marvel and DC's biggest books for thirty years.
