One of the most respected artists in the comic industry, Jim Lee is a Harvey and Inkpot Award-winning artist known for his incredibly detailed and dynamic artistic style. He started his comic book career at Marvel Comics, where his work on X-Men continues to be his lifelong legacy. He was also the artist on many of DC Comics’ bestselling books and graphic novels, including All-Star Batman & Robin, The Boy Wonder; Batman: Hush; and Superman: For Tomorrow. Later, he started his own production company, WildStorm Productions, and co-founded Image Comics, an independent comics company that quickly grew and is now one of the industry’s largest publishers.

Jeph Loeb is known for Batman: The Long Halloween; Superman for All Seasons; Spider-Man: Blue; Batman: Hush‘ Red Hulk; and Superman/Batman, as well as many other comics. In television, Loeb’s credits include Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., as well as Lost, Smallville, Heroes and more. Loeb has also written films such as Teen Wolf and Commando, among others.
