Brian Michael Bendis

Brian Michael Bendis was born on August 18th, 1967 and is currently 58 years old. Brian Michael Bendis was born in Cleveland, Ohio, USA.

Brian Michael Bendis is a comic book artist and writer.

Brian decided that he wanted to become a comic book industry professional back when he was just 13, working on comics of his own, including this “Punisher versus Captain America” story which he revised multiple times. A particular fan of Marvel Comics, he emulated idols like Jack Kirby, John Romita, Sr., John Romita, Jr., George Perez, Frank Miller, and Klaus Janson.

He later found crime comics written by Jose Munoz and Jim Steranko, which he traced back via Jim Thompson’s work to the source novels of Dashiell Hammett and Thompson, which helped cement his love for crime stories. In turn, this led him to finding Visions of Light, a documentary, which taught him all the visual “rules” of film noir, which is an important influence on him creatively.

He started with noir and crime comics, and eventually moved on to mainstream superhero work. During his time at Marvel Comics, he worked with Mark Millar and Bill Jemas as the writer on the first book in Ultimate Spiderman, published by the Ultimate Marvel imprint. Brian also helped relaunch the Avengers franchise with the New Avengers in 2004, writing storylines from 2004 until 2013.

Even though he has cited comic book writers like Alan Moore and Frank Miller as inspiration, his writing influences are much less rooted in comics. He draws on the works of Richard Price, David Mamet, and Aaron Sorkin, whose dialogue is the best in any medium, Brian believes.

He has written for video games, television, and film. Brian has also taught courses on graphic novels at Portland State University and The University of Oregon.

Brian has won 5 Eisner Awards both for his creator-owned work as well as his work on various books for Marvel Comics.

In Words for Pictures: The Art and Business of Writing Comics and Graphic Novels, Brian Bendis reveals comic book writing secrets behind his work in All-New X-Men, The Avengers, and Ultimate Spider-Man, as well as others.

Brian is one of the most popular writers in modern comics, and reveals the techniques and tools that he and the other top creators use in order to create some of the most popular graphic novel and comic book stories of all time. This shows readers the creative methods of a writer that is at the top of his field.

Brian guides all aspiring creators through every step of making a comic book (from idea to the script to the finished sequential art) for fan favorite comics that he’s worked on. Along the way, insights and tips from other working artists, writers, and editors provide this rare and extensive look behind the creative curtain of the comic book industry.

With script samples, a glossary of must-know business terms for writers, and interactive comics writing exercises, this book provides the complete toolbox that is needed to jump start the next comics writing success story.
