He seems like the most mysterious person to ever work in comics. It's almost like he didn't exist. After the mid 90's I think, he essentially disappeared from the industry. I think he just works in freelance illustration now, but I don't think he's done anything big in a long, long time. Anyone ever see him at a convention?

He seemed like a person trying to draw like John Buscema. I'm thinking that in the 90's, many people passed through because of the increasing number of new comic companies that were launching. Steven Platt comes to mind as another person that passed through, although I think people actually met him.

These are 2 pages from Avengers Unplugged #1. It seems that they had many artists at the time trying to copy the Image Guys. He was one of them.

I have a dear friend in Olympia Washington that met him in when he was doing Nick Fury / Shield #34 in Pencil Form for undisclosed amount of monies and he was thrilled to get it. I can't remember when met him. Nick Fury Shield #34

I only knew him as the one guy on Malibu Comics' Adventure Comics lineup that could actually draw.

Interesting. Nice to put a face to the name.

Never met him, but I do recall liking his work on Thor toward the end of the original run.

That image phase is really jarring. But I guess everyone was doing it. The only image influenced artists I liked that I think made it work well was Jim Lee and Marc Silvestri. From what I've seen with MC Wyman's recent commissions, they look nice. Not sure how he'd do if he went back to interior work.
