MIKE DEODATO

(Redirected from Mike Deodato, Jr.)

'Mike Deodato' (born May 23, 1963 in Campina Grande, Brazil), sometimes called 'Mike Deodato Jr.', is the professional pseudonym of Brazilian comic book artist 'Deodato Taumaturgo Borges Filho'. He currently lives in João Pessoa, Brazil.
Deodato became famous in the American comic book industry for his work on ''Wonder Woman''. Initially one of Mike's first works was a photo realistic comic book rendering of the television series ''Beauty and the Beast'' published through Innovation Publishing and released in 1993. After his Wonder Woman project immediately following, he had a short stint as the penciller of ''The Mighty Thor'', where he worked with writer Warren Ellis, and later drew ''Glory'' for Rob Liefeld's Extreme Studios at Image Comics and Maximum Press.
While his style in the mid-90s was highly reminiscent of Jim Lee, he has recently changed to a more simplified, photo-realistic and sometimes moody style. His first work with this new artistic identity was ''The Incredible Hulk'', written by Bruce Jones. Since then, he has worked on the Dr. Strange spin-off ''Witches'' and become the regular penciller of ''Amazing Spider-Man'' and ''The New Avengers'', while soon taking over from Gary Frank as the penciller for Squadron Supreme. Deodato has taken over as regular penciller for the Marvel title ''Thunderbolts'' with issue 110 , once again collaborating with Warren Ellis. [1]
