Dave Simons Biography

Dave Simons is one of the most popular and richest Comic Book Artist who was born on December 20, 1954 in Middletown, Ohio, United States.

Approaching then-Marvel editor Rick Marschall at a convention in the late 1970s, Simons was able to get his samples seen and assessed. At the time Marschall was overseeing the Curtis Magazines line for Marvel, and Simons was duly assigned the duty of inking the first issue of the Howard the Duck magazine. After submitting the story Simons was assigned a fill-in Falcon story, which he inked with the assistance of Gil over Sal Buscemas pencils. This marked his first professional work for Marvel and in mainstream comic books.

Simons was then assigned both pencilling and inking jobs for Marvel. One of the artists whose pencils he inked was Gene Colan. “Gene Colan was always my favorite penciler to work on … [T]hat was like a match made in heaven because a lot of people didn’t understand Gene’s shading. I thought, ‘this is great, this is a great jumping on point if you’re gonna do black and white stuff'”. Colan has spoken highly of Simons’s talent. “Do you know how few artists have ever been able to ink my very complex and often inscrutable pencils? Do you know how exquisitely Dave Simon inks my pencils? … I’ve yet to see anything Dave has done that I haven’t loved! Artists and inkers have come and gone but Dave remains today still at the top of his form!” Simons’ attention to detail came into high demand in the 1980s and his inking credits include artists such as Keith Pollard, Ron Wilson, Frank Miller, John Buscema, Marc Silvestri, Greg LaRocque, John Romita Jr and Ed Hannigan. Titles that featured his inking include Thor, The Thing, Marvel Premiere, Night Thrasher, Iron Man, King Conan, Doctor Strange, Star Wars, Star Trek, Thundercats and others.
