Since then his he has worked for such comic book giants as DC and Marvel, as well as independent publisher Dark Horse. He has taken on some of the world’s most recognizable comic book titles in his work, including X-Factor, Birds of Prey, Iron Man, Flash and the biggest hero of them all, Superman. Guice also collaborated with industry luminaries Ed Brubaker and Bryan Hitch on Marvel’s major publishing event, Captain America Reborn.

The talented Chris Sprouse will be attending the Cincinnati Comic Expo!

 

 

Chris Sprouse is best known for his work as the artist and co-creator (with Alan Moore) of the DC Comics series Tom Strong. His work Tom Strong earned the artist two Eisner awards and was a career highlight.

 

That career has now spanned two decades, with Sprouse working on numerous projects over the years for most of the major publishers in the industry.

 

He's drawn Legionnaires, Batman, Global Frequency, Ex Machina, Midnighter, and various Justice League books for DC, as well as pencilling X-Men and Spider-Man covers and interiors for Marvel Comics. With Terry Austin writing and inking, Sprouse also drew the comics adaptation of the Star Wars novel Splinter of the Mind's Eye for Dark Horse Comics in 1995. Chris then teamed up with Alan Moore for the first time on Supreme for Maximum Press, went on to illustrate Warren Ellis' WildC.A.T.S./Aliens crossover for Wildstorm Productions, before settling down for several years drawing the Tom Strong series. In 2004, Sprouse again worked with Ellis, designing and drawing the science fiction graphic novel Ocean, which earned the penciller a third Eisner nomination.

 

Most recently, Sprouse drew the first issue of the top-selling, Grant Morrison penned Batman: The Return of Bruce Wayne series, before returning to Tom Strong for the Tom Strong and the Robots of Doom mini-series.

 

Currently, the artist is working on a brand new Tom Strong mini-series, Tom Strong and the Planet of Peril.

A painter and former art teacher, Bettie Breitweiser came to the attention of Marvel editorial after coloring some of her husband's work. She's since paired her nuanced color palette to many of Marvel's greatest characters and creators, including Gabriel Hardman on HULK, and Butch Guice on Captain America.
