Michael Joseph "Mike" Mignola ( /ˌmɪnˈjoʊlə/; born September 16, 1960) is an American comic book artist and writer who created the comic book series Hellboy for Dark Horse Comics. He has worked for animation projects such as Atlantis: The Lost Empire and the adaptation of his one shot comic book, The Amazing Screw-On Head.

Contents

Career

Mignola was born in Berkeley, California. He began his career in 1980 by illustrating spots in the Comic Reader. His first published piece was in the Comic Reader #183, a spot illustration of Red Sonja (pg. 9). His first published front cover was the Comic Reader #196; Dominic Fortune, the Spirit, and Doc Savage in November 1981. In 1982 he graduated from the California College of the Arts with a BFA in Illustration.[1]

In 1983 he worked on inking at Marvel Comics, working on Daredevil and Power Man & Iron Fist for Marvel Comics, and later worked on titles such as The Incredible Hulk, Alpha Flight and the Rocket Raccoon limited-series.

Mignola drew covers for several Batman stories, inluding Batman: A Death in the Family and Dark Knight, Dark City.

Through the early 1990s Mignola worked on covers and backup features for various DC and Marvel comics.

Hellboy

Until 1994 Mignola had illustrated the work of others. In 1994 he illustrated his own work, his first Hellboy story, The Seed of Destruction, scripted by John Byrne, and published by Dark Horse Comics, followed by further stories, with associated merchandise. The Hellboy story Wolves of St. August and most later stories were scripted by Mignola, though other writers and artists have also worked on the character. All major story arcs were drawn by Mike Mignola, but in 2007 artist Duncan Fegredo took over drawing, with Mignola remaining on as writer and cover artist. He also writes the spin-off BPRD with John Arcudi, drawn by Guy Davis with Mignola as cover artist. The 2008 one-shot In the Chapel of Moloch was the first Hellboy comic he provided the script and art for since The Island in 2005.[2]

Style

Mignola's style was called "German expressionism meets Jack Kirby" by Alan Moore, in an introduction to a collection of Mignola's Hellboy works.[3] His style has also been likened to an amalgamation of Jack Kirby and Alex Toth.[4]

Film and television

Mignola worked as an illustrator for Francis Ford Coppola's 1992 movie Bram Stoker's Dracula. He was also the production designer for the Disney feature film, Atlantis: The Lost Empire in 2001, and was a concept artist for 2002's Blade II, also directed by del Toro.

Mignola's design of the 1880s Batman costume from the comic Batman: Gotham by Gaslight appeared in Batman: The Brave and the Bold.

Hellboy was made into a feature film in 2004 by director Guillermo del Toro. Mignola was closely involved with the movie's production, and a sequel was released in 2008. Recently, Hellboy has been made into two direct-to-video animated films, Sword of Storms in 2006 and Blood and Iron in 2007.

Mignola's The Amazing Screw-On Head debuted in 2006 on the Sci-Fi Channel, starring the voices of Paul Giamatti and David Hyde Pierce.

John Arcudi

John Arcudi is an American comic book writer, best known for his work on "The Mask" and "B.P.R.D.", and his series " Major Bummer".

Background

The son of a renowned professor of Italian literature, Arcudi grew up in Buffalo, New York during the turbulent 1970s. He attended Columbia University, where he majored in English and devoured the works of Edgar Rice Burroughs and William Faulkner with equal enthusiasm.

After serving various apprenticeships on the fringes of the comic industry, including a stint at the New York branch of Forbidden Planet and the United Features comic syndicate, Arcudi joined Malibu Comics upon its founding in 1986, working on its Eternity line. At the same time he started writing for comics, making his first sales to "Savage Tales" and "Savage Sword of Conan" in 1986, and becoming a regular contributor to the humor magazine "Cracked".

The Mask

Arcudi joined the stable of writers at Dark Horse Comics. He worked on developing the character "the Mask" first in "Mayhem" #1-4, and then in a highly successful series of books illustrated by Doug Mahnke. Arcudi’s work formed the basis of the feature film starring Jim Carrey.

Major Bummer

Arcudi and Mahnke teamed up for several projects besides the Mask. Most notable among these was the series "Major Bummer" published by DC Comics. The series focuses on a defective band of superheros, including a slightly senile time traveler, an incompetent super vocalist, a man who can stick to things and the main character, a slacker who doesn't care about his super-genius and strength. The title was canceled after only 15 issues.

Arcudi also did a stint on "Gen13", illustrated by Gary Frank and Cam Smith, and wrote a run on "Doom Patrol", illustrated by Tan Eng Huat.

Early Work

Arcudi’s work on "The Mask" was preceded by a number of effective graphic novels based on films, including RoboCop, Terminator, Predator, Alien, and The Thing. Two of these graphic works were subsequently adapted as full-length novels published by Bantam Books. His most recent work in this line, "Aliens: Alchemy", was illustrated by Richard Corben. Arcudi’s series "Barb Wire", featuring bounty hunter and bartendress Barbara Kopetski, was adapted into a film starring Pamela Anderson.

A lifelong aficionado of hardboiled crime novels, Arcudi also scripted several highly effective stories published in "Dark Horse Presents", a series called “The Creep,” and a police procedural called “Homicide”. The protagonist of the latter, Detective Will Ford, was named in homage to one of Arcudi’s literary heroes, Charles Willeford. He has returned to the form recently with several scripts for ' and '.

B.P.R.D.

Arcudi invented the character Captain Daimio for the series B.P.R.D., which he writes with Mike Mignola. Arcudi had contributed a B.P.R.D. story to the Hellboy comic issued in conjunction with the film as a premium from Wizard Entertainment. As B.P.R.D. developed into a separate series, Mignola tapped Arcudi to write the scripts. Three complexly plotted tales have been published to date, with a fourth ("Killing Ground") currently in production.
