Adam Hughes
Probably best known for the striking cover artwork he provides for the comic book industry.

artist, Adam’s art has graced the covers of such well-known titles as Wonder Woman, Catwoman, Tomb Raider, as well as the interiors of books like Justice League of America, Legion of Superheroes, Maze Agency, and Ghost, to name a few.

style and humor, have made him a one-of-a-kind in the industry. His
