Mike Wolfer

Mike Wolfer is a comic book writer and artist. He attended The Kubert School for two years.

He started his career in 1987 by forming his own publishing company, Ground Zero Comics, and self-published "Daikazu" (8 issues) and "Daikazu Vs. Gugoron" (3 issues).

In 1992, Wolfer began publishing "Widow," a horror title that ran a total of 14 issues, through various mini-series: "Widow: Flesh And Blood," "Widow: Kill Me Again," "Widow: Metal Gypsies" and "Widow: Bound By Blood." Simultaneously, Wolfer began freelancing with other companies such as Dark Horse Comics ("Dark Horse Presents," "Godzilla"), London Night Studios ("Razor"), Chaos! Comics ("Lady Death Swimsuit/Lingerie"), Re-Visionary Press' Carnal Comics, and others.

Wolfer soon began writing and illustrating many of Avatar titles, collaborating with many writers including Warren Ellis, Garth Ennis, and Alan Moore. He has worked on horror titles such as "Night of the Living Dead," "Friday the 13th," and "Escape of the Living Dead." His work on supernatural tales continued with his writing credits on Warren Ellis' many "Gravel" comics and Garth Ennis' "Stitched," both of which he also illustrated. Wolfer assumed scripting "Stitched" in September 2012, writing issues #8-19, which were illustrated by Fernando Furukawa. In 2013, he illustrated the four-issue "Skin Trade," the comic adaptation of the George R.R. Martin werewolf epic. He has also worked for Avatar's sister company, Boundless Comics, where he wrote both Brian Pulido's "Lady Death" and "War Goddess."

"Lady Death" was nominated for "Sexist Or Racist Or Homophobic Comic Of The Year" at the 2011 C2E2 Bleeding Cool Awards.

In July 2016, Wolfer began writing an authorized comic book sequel The Land That Time Forgot. The book was drawn by Giancarlo Caracuzzo and published by American Mythology Productions. In the first issue, Wolfer says the publisher approached him to write it because they had heard he was a big fan of the novel by Edgar Rice Burroughs. Provided by Wikipedia
