Terry Dodson is known for his work on Harley Quinn, Spider-Man, Star Wars, Captain Marvel, Wonder WomanX-Men, and Avengers. His clients include Marvel Animation Studio, Lucasfilm, Riot Games, Hasbro, Mattel, DC Entertainment, Warner Brothers, ESPN, Electronic Arts, Hanna-Barbara, Marvel Entertainment, Sideshow Collectibles and many more. He is currently working on the graphic novel series Adventureman with writer Matt Fraction and is a cover artist for Marvel Comics and DC Comics. Terry remains a popular artist in the industry— a status he attributes in large part to the contributions of his wife, Rachel, who adds her masterly inking to his work.
