Brett Breeding
Brett Breeding has enjoyed nearly forty-five years as a comic book artist, illustrating and creating characters for Marvel and DC Comics as well as numerous independent publishers. Primarily known for his finished inks over pencilers George Perez, Ron Frenz, Dan Jurgens, Bob Hall, and Kerry Gammill, Brett has also done penciling, traditional and computer coloring, as well as story development and plotting. He is a co-creator of DC Comics characters Doomsday, Blaze, Lord Satanus and Shadowdragon as well as Marvel Comics’ Dargo Thor. Brett has worked on many titles for Marvel and DC Comics, but is most recognized for his work on the Superman titles, notably the “Death of Superman” storyline, as well as the Spider-Man titles, The Mighty Thor, The Avengers and West Coast Avengers, the Hawkeye Limited Series and the first comic series featuring the Thundercats. While working on Thor #390 with Ron Frenz, Brett originated the idea that Steve Rogers would be worthy to wield Thor’s hammer, Mjolnir, and Ron and writer Tom DeFalco made it a key part of the story. Over 30 years later Brett’s idea would be immortalized on the big screen as a key moment in Marvel’s Avengers: Endgame. Brett’s recent works include licensing art for DC and Warner Brothers Consumer Products along with children’s books and digital interactive iPad apps featuring Superman and Batman for WB Global Publishing. Recently, Brett has returned to Marvel, inking occasional covers and interior pages, as well as special projects for the MCU. Starting in 2021 Brett reunited with Dan Jurgens for the first time in 25+ years where they continue to produce covers for various Marvel titles. In 2022, for the first time in over 25 years, Brett again teamed up with Dan on Superman to create artwork for the main story for the 30th Anniversary of The Death of Superman Special Edition comic and in 2023 they teamed up again for the 30th Anniversary of the Reign of the Supermen Special Edition.
