Author Bio

Ed Brubaker is one of the most acclaimed writers in comics, a multiple Eisner Award winner. Following fan-favorite runs on Scene of the Crime, Sleeper, Catwoman and Gotham Central for DC, he moved to Marvel. His Captain America relaunch, in which he controversially revived Bucky Barnes as the Winter Soldier, won over fans new and old, and his revisionist take on the history of Marvel's mutants in X-Men- Deadly Genesis resulted in a regular gig on Uncanny X-Men, Marvel's flagship X-title. He and longtime artistic collaborator Michael Lark took up the baton on Daredevil after Brian Michael Bendis and Alex Maleev's legendary run concluded, and Brubaker jump-started Immortal Iron Fist with co-writer Matt Fraction and artist David Aja. Marvel's Icon imprint published Brubaker's creator-owned Criminal and Incognito, and he has gone on to further success at Image Comics with such titles as Fatale, Velvet and The Fade Out. Beyond comics, Brubaker has written for TV's Westworld and co-created the crime drama Too Old to Die Young. Chris Samnee has drawn comics for major and indie publishers including Marvel, DC/Vertigo and Oni Press. His credits include the Vertigo graphic novel Area 10 with writer Christos Gage and the Marvel series Thor- The Mighty Avenger with writer Roger Langridge. He subsequently joined a team of artists including Mike Deodato Jr. and Butch Guice on Ed Brubaker's Captain America, and helped launch Captain America and Bucky. His two collaborations with writer Mark Waid, on Rocketeer- Cargo of Doom and Daredevil, won him the 2013 Eisner Award for Best Penciler/Inker, shared with Hawkeye's David Aja. Waid and Samnee continued their professional relationship on Black Widow. Italian comics and storyboard artist Francesco Francavilla got his start working on series including Black Coat- A Call to Arms from Ape Entertainment and Left on Mission from Boom! Studios. He brought his unique artistic flair to the pages of Image Comics' Sorrow, Dynamite's Zorro and DC's Detective Comics before making his Marvel debut on Black Panther- The Man Without Fear. Francavilla launched his creation, The Black Beetle, with Dark Horse Comics. Jackson "Butch" Guice began his Marvel career during the 1980s penciling Micronauts, New Mutants and X-Factor. He moved to DC for a fan-favorite run on Flash, subsequently illustrating nearly three years' worth of Action Comics and participating in the "Death of Superman" event. He also co-created Resurrection Man and provided artwork for Birds of Prey. Back at Marvel, he penciled Captain America, Iron Man, Ultimate Origins and more. He has also worked on CrossGen's Ruse, Dark Horse's film tie-ins Terminator- Endgame and Aliens/Predator, First's Badger and Nexus, and Valiant's Eternal Warrior.
