About the Author
Joe Quesada became Marvel's editor in chief in 2000, instilling an excitement and buzz that had been lacking for years. He is now Marvel's chief creative officer. Quesada began as an artist at Valiant and DC during the early 1990s and soon co-founded Event Comics, introducing original characters Ash and Painkiller Jane. By 1998, Quesada's reputation as both artist and publisher led to the founding of Marvel's groundbreaking Marvel Knights imprint, with Quesada illustrating the flagship book, Daredevil. Marvel Knights' critical and sales success led to Quesada's appointment as editor in chief. In addition to overseeing Marvel's creative output, Quesada remains an active writer and artist on projects including the Daredevil: Father miniseries and the Spider-Man "One More Day" crossover.
Marjorie Liu is a former lawyer turned New York Times-bestselling author most famous for her Dirk & Steele and Hunter Kiss series of romance novels. A diehard comics fan, her first foray in the medium produced the NYX series No Way Home. Subsequent credits include Black Widow, X-23 and Daken: Dark Wolverine (with Daniel Way); she has also written the novel X-Men: Dark Mirror.
Few artists have had a more impressive debut in the industry than
Joshua Middleton. Following work on Meridian for CrossGen and NYX for Marvel, Middleton went on to illustrate First Thunder for DC, chronicling the initial meeting between Superman and Captain Marvel. In addition to his sequential artwork, Middleton was honored in 2004 with an Eisner Award nomination for Best Cover Artist.
