Indiana Jones: The Further Adventures Book 1

Walter Simonson

Walter Simonson gained industry acclaim for his award-winning work on DC’s “Manhunter” feature in Detective Comics. He then moved to Marvel, where his revered run scripting and penciling Thor introduced numerous characters and concepts from both myth and outer space. He collaborated with his wife, Louise, on both X-Factor and Wildstorm’s World of Warcraft, later returning to Marvel to illustrate Brian Michael Bendis’ Avengers.

David Michelinie

David Michelinie began his writing career on DC horror titles before moving to Marvel. He and co-writer/inker Bob Layton established Iron Man’s battle with alcoholism, his use of specialized armor variants, and his vendetta against Doctor Doom, along with other aspects of the character that endure to this day. Michelinie’s unique blend of action, suspense, and humor distinguished not only Iron Man but also Amazing Spider-Man. With artist Todd McFarlane, he introduced the villain Venom and wrote the first Venom limited series, Lethal Protector. Michelinie’s tenure as the writer for Amazing Spider-Man was second only to Stan Lee’s in length. He also authored tie-in titles such as Spectacular Spider-Man, Web of Spider-Man, and Spider-Man. He transitioned from Marvel’s flagship character to DC’s with a stint on Action Comics, later returning to the world of Tony Stark for writing collaborations with Bob Layton on Iron Man: Legacy of Doom and Iron Man: The End.

John Buscema (1927-2002)

John Buscema literally wrote the book on being a Marvel artist, authoring How To Draw Comics the Marvel Way. His career dates back to the Timely/Atlas era of the late 1940s and early 1950s. Soon after the beginning of the Marvel Age of Comics, Stan Lee recruited Buscema from the advertising field to the Marvel Bullpen. Buscema followed a long run on Avengers with the highly anticipated first Silver Surfer series. He subsequently succeeded Jack Kirby on Fantastic Four, Thor, and other titles. By the time of his retirement in 1996, Buscema had penciled nearly every Marvel title, including his personal favorite, Conan the Barbarian.

Jackson “Butch” Guice

Jackson “Butch” Guice began his Marvel career in the 1980s, penciling Micronauts, New Mutants, and X-Factor. He moved to DC for a fan-favorite run on Flash, subsequently illustrating nearly three years of Action Comics and participating in the “Death of Superman” event. He also co-created Resurrection Man and provided artwork for Birds of Prey. Back at Marvel, he penciled Captain America, Iron Man, Ultimate Origins, and more. He has also worked on CrossGen’s Ruse, Dark Horse’s film tie-ins Terminator: Endgame and Aliens/Predator, First’s Badger and Nexus, and Valiant’s Eternal Warrior.

John Byrne

John Byrne has worked continuously in the comics industry as both a writer and artist since 1975. After his initial collaboration with writer Chris Claremont on Iron Fist, Byrne and Claremont moved to X-Men for a run still regarded as one of the title’s finest. Byrne contributed an equally famed stint on Fantastic Four, earning comparisons to the original Lee/Kirby issues for his imaginative plotlines and dynamic artwork. He also spun Alpha Flight into its own title. In 1986, he revamped DC’s flagship hero, Superman, reimagining the Man of Steel in a historic project heralded by a Time magazine cover. His remarkable contribution to the Marvel Universe extends to memorable associations with virtually every major hero, including celebrated runs on Captain America, Iron Man, Sensational She-Hulk, Namor the Sub-Mariner, and Thing. In the 21st century, Byrne’s considerable body of work includes IDW’s Star Trek and Angel.
