Award-winning comic-book creator Brian Michael Bendis is one of the
most successful writers in the industry today. In addition to an
acclaimed run on Daredevil, he has helmed a renaissance for
Marvel's popular Avengers franchise and written the event projects
House of M, Secret War, Secret Invasion, Siege, Age of Ultron and
Civil War II. Bendis wrote every issue of Ultimate Spider-Man from
its launch in 1999 before bringing his multiracial Spider-Man,
Miles Morales, to the Marvel Universe for continuing adventures. He
took on Marvel's mutants in the pages of All-New X-Men and Uncanny
X-Men, and launched Guardians of the Galaxy into the stratosphere.
Bendis shook up the life of Tony Stark in Invincible Iron Man and
related titles, introducing Riri Williams as Ironheart, and then
assembled street-level heroes Luke Cage, Iron Fist, Daredevil and
his co-creation Jessica Jones in Defenders. His creator-owned
projects include Scarlet with Alex Maleev, Brilliant with Mark
Bagley, and Takio and the Eisner Award-winning Powers with Michael
Avon Oeming.
Artist David Marquez began his career fresh out of college as an
animator on Warner Independent Pictures' 2006 film A Scanner
Darkly. He made his comics debut in 2010 with the graphic novel
Syndrome, published by Archaia Entertainment, for which he received
a Russ Manning Most Promising Newcomer Award nomination. He has
since gone on to draw Secret Warriors, Fantastic Four- Season One,
Ultimate Comics Spider-Man, All-New X-Men and Invincible Iron Man
for Marvel. The event series Civil War II established him as one of
the House of Ideas' biggest artistic superstars.
Artist Mike Deodato Jr. was already a renowned illustrator in his
native Brazil when he got his big break in American comics in 1994,
illustrating DC's Wonder Woman. For Marvel, he drew such series as
Avengers, Elektra, Spider-Man and Incredible Hulk. After refining
his inimitable style on the creator-owned Jade Warriors, he
returned to Marvel for a second turn on Incredible Hulk, with
writer Bruce Jones, and a stint on J. Michael Straczynski's Amazing
Spider-Man. Deodato has forged an association with the Avengers on
various titles - including collaborations with Brian Michael
Bendis, Ed Brubaker and Jonathan Hickman - and demonstrated his
superstar status on the event book Original Sin. Deodato joined
writer Jeff Lemire in exploring one of Marvel's greatest villains
in Thanos.
