Author Biography

Beginning his career in animation working on such films as The Iron Giant, Anastasia and Titan A.E., Rick Remender has become a comic-book triple threat - writing, pencilling and inking numerous fan-favourite series. Remender served as writer on hit video games Dead Space and Bulletstorm, while providing art for punk/metal bands like NOFX and 3 Inches of Blood. He's co-created many popular independent titles, including the critically acclaimed Fear Agent with longtime collaborators Tony Moore and Jerome Opena. His time at Marvel started on Punisher and has since led to well-received runs on Uncanny X-Force, Venom, Captain America and Uncanny Avengers. The son of industry pioneer Joe Kubert, Adam Kubert has won numerous comic-industry achievement awards during a career stretching past its second decade. His landmark runs on Wolverine and Incredible Hulk made him a superstar, earning him both an Eisner Award and a Wizard magazine award. His subsequent efforts for Marvel include Astonishing Spider-Man & Wolverine with Jason Aaron, as well as covers for such series as Wolverine: Weapon X and New Mutants. Kubert joined the stellar artistic lineup of the event series Avengers vs. X-Men. A copy of How To Draw Comics the Marvel Way sparked Leinil Yu's interest in comics when he was 11. Positive responses from industry talent scouts and the publication of his fan art in Wizard magazine later reinforced it, and Whilce Portacio's tutelage helped him land his first mainstream comics gig on Wolverine in 1997. Following a successful run, Yu took on such titles as Uncanny X-Men, X-Men, Superman: Birthright and Ultimate Wolverine vs. Hulk. After an extended period laying the groundwork in New Avengers, he and writer Brian Michael Bendis turned the Marvel Universe upside down with the massive Secret Invasion crossover. Together with Mark Waid, he has added a surprising agent to the ranks of S.H.I.E.L.D. in Indestructible Hulk. Yu has also provided concept artwork for films and video games.
