7 Black Comic Creators To Check Out
1. Valentine DeLandro
DeLandro's highest profile work as an artist is probably Image's excellent Eisner-nominated Bitch Planet series, which he co-created with writer Kelly Sue DeConnick in 2014.
The series focuses on a number of female inmates of a prison planet, taking inspiration from exploitation and B-movies of the mid-to-late 20th century. The main series has been collected since it finished into two paperback volumes which comprise the ten-issue run.
His other work includes Marvel's X-Factor, and Marvel Knights, as well as variant covers such as on DC's The Wild Storm series.
