Ian Gabriel is an American cartoonist who started in comics by drawing monsters for Rosarium Publishing’s Manticore and has now moved on to drawing monstrous people in his graphic novel Supreme Beings. With a lifelong passion for Gothic imagery, history, comics, and the bizarre, Ian looks to find the humanity in such places, and to explore what our darker sides can tell us to help express our better natures. His next book, he swears, will be a light-hearted comedy.
Ian is an accomplished painter, animator, writer, instructor, and man-about-town when he’s not thinking about how to make comic panels.
Ian Gabriel’s mentor is Benjamin Marra.
