About the Author
Alex Ross studied at the American Academy of Art in Chicago, then honed his craft as a storyboard artist before entering the field of comics in 1993 with his groundbreaking miniseries Marvels, which created a wider acceptance for painted comics. In 1996, he produced the equally successful Kingdom Come for DC Comics, and followed those up with an extensive series of work, including magazine and album covers, as well as a poster for the Academy Awards. Ross has also been the subject of two award-winning monographs written and designed by Chip Kidd—Mythology: The DC Comics Art of Alex Ross and Marvelocity: The Marvel Comics Art of Alex Ross.
