Among his notable work are contributions to X-Men, Avengers, and Doctor Strange, where his art balances epic action with nuanced character moments.

Die ganze Comic-Welt ist von Asterix besetzt. Die ganze? Na gut, die ganze nicht. Aber ohne Asterix - und Obelix - und Idefix - und die ix-anderen (und niemals ix-beliebigen) Menschen aus dem gallischen Dorf wäre die Comic-Welt eine andere. Und eine ärmere. Was der Texter René Goscinny und der Zeichner Albert Uderzo vor mehr als 65 Jahren geschaffen haben, das ist so wie beide Urteile über den Sänger Troubadix in einem: Hochgenial UND unbeschreiblich. Und weil den beiden genialen Vätern inzwischen kongeniale Menschen nachgefolgt sind, ist den Galliern Asterix und Obelix noch immer nicht der Himmel auf den Kopf gefallen. Nein: Ihr bereits 41. Band ist fertig! Aber so wie ihr gallisches Dorf von Laudanum, Kleinbonum und den anderen römischen Lagern umzingelt ist, so müssen sich auch die Geschichten über dieses Dorf immer wieder zwischen anderen kreativen Comics behaupten. Wie gut gelingt ihnen das? Sind Asterix und Obelix immer noch DIE Helden der großen weiten Comic-Welt oder sind Mangas und Graphic Novels inzwischen viel größer als sie? Welchen Einfluss haben die tapferen Gallier heute auf die Kunstform des Comics und wie ernst wird diese Literatur inzwischen genommen? Spinnen die, die so etwas lesen? Oder spinnen die, die so etwas sagen? Unseren „Passierschein A38“ bekommen diesmal (und sie bekommen ihn wirklich!): Der Comiczeichner Felix Görmann alias “Flix”, die Germanistin Mechthild Wiesner und der ARD-Journalist und Comic-Blogger Alex Jakubowski. Podcast-Tipp: WDR5 Zeitzeichen Als im Herbst 1959 mit der ersten Ausgabe des neuen französischen Comic-Magazins "Pilote" auch die erste Seite von "Asterix der Gallier" erscheint, ist dies eine Revolution. Autor René Goscinny und Zeichner Albert Uderzo machen sich so gnadenlos über die Franzosen lustig, dass sich erstmals Kinder und Erwachsene gleichermaßen für einen Comic begeistern. https://www.ardaudiothek.de/episode/urn:ard:episode:501d3d9bc4d8a919/

Zum 150. Geburtstag hat die Berliner Comic-Künstlerin Melanie Garanin dem Dichter Rainer Maria Rilke eine Graphic Novel gewidmet, die weit über die klassische Biografie hinausgeht.
