David Marquez was born in London and grew up in Houston, Texas. After graduating from the University of Texas at Austin with degrees in History and Government and a teaching certificate for high school history, David chose to take a risk to pursue his passion for illustration. He auditioned for an animation position on Warner Independent Pictures’ A SCANNER DARKLY, and was immediately hired. After SCANNER David worked on a variety of small press and creator-owned comics projects, culminating in the summer of 2010 with the release of his first major project, SYNDROME, a graphic novel from Archaia Entertainment. His work on SYNDROME and DAYS MISSING:KESTUS (also through Archaia) earned David a nomination for the Russ Manning Most Promising Newcomer Award, given out each year at the Eisner Awards ceremony at San Diego Comic Con. David is currently working under an exclusive contract with Marvel Comics. His projects include ULTIMATE COMICS SPIDER-MAN and ALL-NEW X-MEN, both with acclaimed writer Brian Michael Bendis. David resides in Austin, Texas with his fiancée, Tara, and dogs Shisha and Chomps. He fills what little free time that’s left practicing Aikido and working on his first creator-owned original graphic novel THE JOYNERS IN 3D, written by his close friend and SYNROME collaborator R.J.

A comic book writer and erstwhile artist. He has won critical acclaim (including five Eisner Awards) and is one of the most successful writers working in mainstream comics. For over eight years Bendis’s books have consistently sat in the top five best sellers on the nationwide comic and graphic novel sales charts. Though he started as a writer and artist of independent noir fiction series, he shot to stardom as a writer of Marvel Comics' superhero books, particularly Ultimate Spider-Man. Bendis first entered the comic world with the "Jinx" line of crime comics in 1995. This line has spawned the graphic novels Goldfish, Fire, Jinx, Torso (with Marc Andreyko), and Total Sell Out. Bendis is writing the film version of Jinx for Universal Pictures with Oscar-winner Charlize Theron attached to star and produce. Bendis’s other projects include the Harvey, Eisner, and Eagle Award-nominated Powers (with Michael Avon Oeming) originally from Image Comics, now published by Marvel's new creator-owned imprint Icon Comics, and the Hollywood tell-all Fortune and Glory from Oni Press, both of which received an "A" from Entertainment Weekly. Bendis is one of the premiere architects of Marvel's "Ultimate" line: comics specifically created for the new generation of comic readers. He has written every issue of Ultimate Spider-Man since its best-selling launch, and has also written for Ultimate Fantastic Four and Ultimate X-Men, as well as every issue of Ultimate Marvel Team-Up, Ultimate Origin and Ultimate Six. Brian is currently helming a renaissance for Marvel’s AVENGERS franchise by writing both New Avengers and Mighty Avengers along with the successful ‘event’ projects House Of M, Secret War, and this summer’s Secret Invasion. He has also previously done work on Daredevil, Alias, and The Pulse.
