Walter Simonson was born in Knoxville, TN, and grew up in College Park, MD. He always liked drawing pictures and telling stories, and in comics he found a place where he could do both and make a living. He's worked on DC's MANHUNTER, METAL MEN, SUPERMAN, BATMAN, WONDER WOMAN, and the original graphic novel THE JUDAS COIN, as well as ALIEN, THOR, THE FANTASTIC FOUR, ELRIC, WORLD OF WORCRAFT andTHE STAR SLAMMERS, among many others. Currently he is writing and illustrating the series RAGNAROK for IDW."Simonson takes grand themes, draws the hell out of them, and unleashes them on the world ... A breathtaking read." --Comic Book Resources<br /><br />"Simonson's characterization of Orion as the tragic hero is spot on, as he rails against his own dark heritage with the fanatical zeal of a believer and the reckless disregard of an infidel. There is much cosmic bombast to be admired here, Simonson's dynamic art carries the plot and action breathlessly." --PopMatters<br /><br /><br />"Simonson really just inherently gets comic books. The way he approaches the art is so perfect, this spectacular blend of larger than life and yet easily acceptable." --Crave Online
