Peter David is one of the industry's most prolific and versatile
writers whose record-breaking stint on Incredible Hulk remains a
fan-favorite to this day. His similarly long-running - and
critically acclaimed - association with X-Factor began in the early
1990s and continued in 2005. His other Marvel work includes Captain
Marvel, two lengthy stints on Spider-Man 2099, Ben Reilly- Scarlet
Spider and the smash-hit Symbiote Spider-Man limited series with
artist Greg Land. David is also a novelist and screenwriter. Among
his credits are some forty Star Trek tie-ins; original novels such
as Sir Apropos of Nothing, Howling Mad and Knight Life; movies
Trancers 4 and Trancers 5; and episodes of Babylon 5 and Crusade.
He also co-created the TV show Space Cases with actor-writer Bill
Mumy.
Dan Slott has built a loyal fan base by combining old-school fun
with stories and characterizations friendly to new readers.
Following his run on She-Hulk, Slott moved into the upper echelon
of Marvel writers, launching Avengers- The Initiative and taking
the reins on Mighty Avengers from Brian Michael Bendis. When Marvel
gave Spider-Man a fresh start in 2008, Slott was one of several
rotating writers on the thrice-monthly Amazing Spider-Man. Slott
became the writer most closely identified with the web-slinger's
"Brand New Day" era, and the title hit the "Big Time" when he took
over as full-time writer for a decade-long run. Slott has also
turned his talents to other iconic Marvel heroes - including
soaring the spaceways with Silver Surfer; helming Tony Stark- Iron
Man toward Iron Man 2020; and masterminding the glorious return of
Fantastic Four, leading to his long-awaited "Reckoning War." In
2022, Slott made his way back to the Spider-Verse, teaming with
legendary penciler Mark Bagley on Spider-Man.
After co-creating DC's Swamp Thing in 1972, Len Wein moved to
Marvel for lengthy runs on some of the company's biggest titles -
Amazing Spider-Man, Fantastic Four, Incredible Hulk and Thor - and
helped bring the landmark Giant-Size X-Men #1 into the world,
changing Marvel forever. Returning to DC as an editor, Wein oversaw
an influx of British writing talent, highlighted by Alan Moore's
historic Watchmen miniseries. Wein also has worked in television
and animation, returning to his roots to develop a Swamp Thing
screenplay. He has written comic-book adaptations of The Simpsons
and Futurama.
A native of Ireland, artist Will Sliney got his start working for
small presses in the UK and Ireland. He has since illustrated Boom!
Studios' Farscape- Strange Retractors, DC Comics' Zuda webcomic The
Symptoms and Marvel's Fearless Defenders. Sliney is a member of the
Eclectic Micks, a sketchblog of Irish professional comics
artists.
Three different incarnations of Cloak and Dagger were only a few of
Rick Leonardi's artistic achievements for Marvel. His other credits
include Uncanny X-Men, New Mutants and Spider-Man 2099. At DC, he
drew Batman family titles Batgirl and Nightwing, as well as
comic/film crossover Green Lantern vs. Aliens. At Event Comics, he
penciled Painkiller Jane.
The pencils of Ryan Stegman first gained rave reviews in the Marvel
adaptation of Raymond E. Feist's Magician Apprentice and Riftwar.
The popularity of his work there led to assignments on Incredible
Hulk, Marvel Adventures Spider-Man, Incredible Hercules and
She-Hulks. With writer Christopher Yost, he launched a new
incarnation of Scarlet Spider; with Dan Slott, he shocked fans with
Superior Spider-Man; and with Gerry Conway, he offered a different
take on the wall-crawler and his family in Amazing Spider-Man-
Renew Your Vows. Stegman's other Marvel credits include Wolverine,
Inhuman and Uncanny Avengers as well as his smash-hit run on Venom.
