Mike Deodato

Eisner and Ringo Award winner Mike Deodato is a fan-favorite Brazilian artist whose style ranges from high-energy drawings to noir photorealism. His passion for comics stems from his late father, a comic artist who nurtured his artistic development. Early in his career, Deodato became one of the most sought-after artists, working on major titles like Marvel’s Avengers, Elektra, The Incredible Hulk, Spider-Man, and Thor. He later reinvented his style, adopting a darker, more detailed approach, first explored in a Nightcrawler story for X-Men Unlimited. One of his most cherished works was The Incredible Hulk by Bruce Jones. After 24 years as a Marvel exclusive, Deodato shifted to creator-owned projects, producing titles such as Berserker Unbound, The Resistance, Bad Mother, Redemption, Not All Robots, The Fourth Man, Newthink, and Absolution.
