Michael Golden

Michael Golden is an American comic book artist.

He first rose to prominence in the late 1970s with Marvel Comics' Micronauts series. His very distinctive style combined a rounded, almost three dimensional approach as well as realistic lighting effects and a strong grasp of facial expressions, design and anatomy. His work was prominent on a number of Marvel comic book covers throughout the late 1970s and 1980s on titles such as Doctor Strange, Rom, and She-Hulk. More recently, he has drawn covers for DC Comics' Nightwing, Superman: Man of Steel and Vigilante. Other memorable series he worked on included G.I. Joe and the Howard the Duck black & white magazine.
