Bob McLeod is best known as co-creator / artist of The New Mutants for Marvel Comics, and for writing and illustrating a children's alphabet book, Superhero ABC, published by HarperCollins, which received starred reviews.
He began his career in 1974 working on Marvel Comics' now-defunct Crazy magazine, penciling and inking movie and tv satires and the Teen Hulk humor strip.
He quickly became a top inker on such titles as The Black Panther, Conan the Barbarian and The Incredible Hulk for Marvel, and The Legion of Superheroes, The New Titans, Batman, and Wonder Woman for DC.
He also penciled several issues of Marvel's Star Wars, and did pencils and inks on Spider-Man, Venom, Superman in Action Comics, and The Phantom for Sweden's Egmont Publications.
Bob also edited Twomorrows' Rough Stuff magazine, which was devoted to exploring how comic book art is created.
