Artists Information
Josef "Joe" Rubinstein is a comic book artist and inker, most associated with inking Marvel Comics' The Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe and the 1982 four-issue Wolverine miniseries by Chris Claremont and Frank Miller. He is also known to be the one to have given artist Art Adams his first professional work.
David Mazzucchelli gained fame with a memorable run on Daredevil, concluding with Frank Miller's classic storyline 'Born Again'. He would go on to illustrate Miller's Batman: Year One at DC. After that, with a short Angel story in Marvel Fanfare closing out his mainstream career, Mazzucchelli studied printmaking and launched the groundbreaking self-published anthology series Rubber Blanket with his wife Richmond Lewis. Mazzuccelli's work has been sporadic since the turn of the millenium, with his award winning graphic novel Asterious Polyp being his last major work to this point. His influence in comics cannot be understated, a whole generation of artists have studied his work making him one of the most influential artists of the last 40 years.
