'Warren Sattler' (b. 1934) is an American artist and cartoonist, who contributed work to many popular publications from the early-1960s through the 1990s.
Sattler started cartooning at an early age and was first published in a newspaper at age 15. He got his education at the Wilcox Technical School in Meriden, Connecticut. He later taught at the Famous Artists School from 1957 to 1962. In the 1960s, he assisted on the comic strips ''Barnaby'' and ''The Jackson Twins''. His own strip, ''Grubby'', ran from 1964 to 1997. In the 1970s, Sattler produced art for comic books, in particular Charlton Comics. Some titles he worked on include ''Billy the Kid'', ''Fightin' Army'', ''Fightin' Marines'', ''Ghost Manor'', ''Ghostly Haunts'', and ''Yang''. Additionally, he worked as an illustrator for ''Cracked'' magazine, ''National Lampoon'', and ''Playboy''. Sattler created a second syndicated comic strip in 1980: ''Swamp Brats'', a Sunday-only strip. Also, he ghosted on such newspaper strips as ''Bringing Up Father'', ''Comics for Kids'', and ''Gil Thorp'' during the 1980s and 1990s. In 2003, he was inducted into the Meriden Hall of Fame.
