In addition to writing long   and well-received runs on Amazing Spider-Man and Thor,   DeFalco edited many titles, eventually becoming editor in chief. During the   1980s, he headed the creative team that provided fictional biographies for   G.I. Joe members, originally included with Hasbro’s toys and later used as   the basis for multiple storylines on the animated series. Perhaps his   best-known work is multi-title character Spider-Girl, whom he introduced in 1998. DeFalco has authored multiple   books, including Ultimate Guides for Avengers, Fantastic Four, Hulk and Spider-Man.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrom a   start at short-lived Atlas\/Seaboard, Danny Fingeroth moved to Marvel to edit multiple Spider-Man titles; and write   for Avengers, Dazzler and What If? During the 1990s, he   scripted all fifty issues of Darkhawk, as well as Spider-Man’s Deadly   Foes and Lethal Foes miniseries. Leaving Marvel in 1995, he became Virtual Comics’   editor in chief, and then Visionary Media’s senior vice president for   creative production; he has also taught comic-book writing courses at select   universities. In the prose field, he has written several nonfiction books   about the comic-book field, as well as children’s books on noted actors.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJim   Shooter entered the comic-book field at age 14 as writer   and penciler of the “Legion of Super-Heroes” feature in Adventure Comics. Later moving to   Marvel, he wrote Daredevil, Ghost Rider, Marvel Team-Up, Marvel Two-in-One and other titles. As editor in chief, he tightened Marvel’s   publishing schedule; added new titles; nurtured fresh talent; launched the   New Universe; and wrote the 12-issue Secret Wars and its sequel, Secret Wars II. Eventually leaving Marvel, Shooter wrote for Valiant, Defiant   and Broadway Comics before entering different creative fields at Phobos   Entertainment and TGS Inc. Later returning to DC to write Legion of Super-Heroes, he   subsequently helped revamp Gold Key heroes at Dark Horse.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJohn   Romita Jr. is a modern-day comic-art master, following in   his legendary father’s footsteps. Timeless runs on Iron   Man, Uncanny X-Men, Amazing Spider-Man and Daredevil established him as his own man artistically, and his work on Wolverine and World War Hulk is among the most   explosive comic art of the 21st century. In addition to Eternals with writer Neil Gaiman,   JRJR teamed with Mark Millar on the creator-owned Kick-Ass, later developed into a blockbuster feature film starring   Nicolas Cage. Spidey fans rejoiced at the artist’s return to Amazing Spider-Man with the “Brand   New Day” storylines “New Ways To Die” and “Character Assassination.” He later   helped relaunch Avengers with   writer Brian Michael Bendis and Captain America with Rick Remender, and contributed to the blockbuster   crossover Avengers vs. X-Men. For DC Comics, he has drawn big-name characters such as   Superman, Batman and the Suicide Squad.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrank   Springer (1929-2009) provided artwork for multiple Dell   Comics series before joining the Marvel Bullpen. He illustrated several   stories for the black-and-white magazines of the 1970s, and then moved from   title to title to pencil Avengers, Captain America, Spider-Woman and others. He later worked on Marvel tie-in properties Conan the Barbarian, G.I. Joe and Transformers. At DC, he co-created   the Secret Six in House of Mystery, later returning to the concept in Action   Comics Weekly. Springer also drew several comic   strips, including Adventures of Hedley Kase, Rex Morgan MD, The Virtue of Hedley Kase and Marvel’s own Incredible Hulk.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA   creative stalwart that put his all into his work on long-running series like Ghost Rider and Defenders, Don   Perlin plied his talents in virtually every   discipline in the comic-book field — penciling, inking, creating new   characters and sometimes editing and writing. A student of Burne Hogarth’s,   Perlin launched his career in 1951, drawing horror comics for various publishers   and also penciling Will Eisner’s The Spirit. After serving in the Army, Perlin returned to comics with   Harvey in the late ’50s as well as Charlton in the ’60s. In 1973, he began   his long association with Marvel, finishing John Buscema’s art on Thor and inking several titles. He   took over Werewolf by Night from Mike Ploog, penciling and inking the book for much of the   next two years. He also penciled and inked the supernatural adventures of   Johnny Blaze in Ghost Rider, his name becoming very closely identified with Marvel’s   monster biker. In the ’80s, he drew Defenders for a long run before turning his attention to Marvel’s   adaptation of Hasbro’s Transformers. His early ’90s work on Valiant’s Solar,   Man of the Atom and Bloodshot   was extremely popular, after which Perlin went   into semiretirement.","brand":"Marvel Universe","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44886020948197,"sku":"NP9781302959609","price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/es\/products\/dazzler-omnibus-artgerm-cover-isbn-9781302959609","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
