Frank Brunner
|
American comic book artist, particularly known for his work at Marvel Comics in the 1970s. While his comics career was relatively short - he worked on a handful of titles, and left Marvel in the late 1970s - his detailed, baroque style has proven enormously influential.
Brunner is best-known for his collaboration with writer Steve Englehart on Doctor Strange (in Marvel Premiere in 1972-3, and in the relaunched Doctor Strange title in 1974), and for a handful of Howard The Duck stories with writer Steve Gerber.
Brunner briefly returned to comics in the mid 1980s, as the artist on the First Comics title Warp. He has devoted most of his time, though, to fine art painting and to animation design.
