Since bursting onto the scene at the dawn of the new millenium, Eisner-nominated painter Brett Weldele has been working nonstop. His work has covered a wide range of genres including crime, science fiction and superheroes, and he has worked with Marvel, Top Shelf, Oni Press, Image, Graphitti Designs, AiT and Zenescope. His unique fusion of pen and ink and toner and paint has caught the eye of fans and critics alike. His recent projects include the movie tie-ins Southland Tales: The Prequel Saga and Se7en:Wrath; as well as the bestselling graphic novel for Top Shelf, The Surrogates, recently adapted into a major motion picture from Touchtone Films, and its followup, The Surrogates: Flesh and Bone.



An avid follower of music technology, the versatile Weldele lives in northern California and spends his free time making experimental "blues/tronica" on a mac.
