Colleen Doran (born July 24, 1964) is an American writer-artist and cartoonist. She illustrated hundreds of comics, graphic novels, books and magazines, including the autobiographical graphic novel of Marvel Comics editor and writer Stan Lee entitled Amazing Fantastic Incredible Stan Lee, which became a New York Times bestseller. [1] She adapted and did the art for the short story "Troll Bridge" by Neil Gaiman, which also became a New York Times bestseller. [2] Her books have received Eisner, Harvey, Bram Stoker, Locus, and International Horror Guild Awards.

Contents

Her 2019 graphic novel adaptation of Neil Gaiman's short story Snow, Glass, Apples, won the Bram Stoker Award for Superior Achievement in a Graphic Novel, [3] the Eisner Award for Best Adaptation from Another Medium, the Ringo Award [4] and received nominations for the Eisner for Best Penciller/Inker and Best Artist Ringo. [5] [6] It was also nominated for the Reuben Award from the National Cartoonists Society for Best Graphic Novel. [7]

Her adaptation of Neil Gaiman's Chivalry received the Eisner Award for Best Adaptation from Another Medium, Locus Award for Best Illustrated and Art Book for 2023, a nomination for the Reuben Award for Best Graphic Novel, the Ringo Award, and it was shortlisted for the Excelsior Award. [8] [9] [10] [11] [12]

She also illustrated the works of Alan Moore, Warren Ellis, Joe R. Lansdale, Anne Rice, J. Michael Straczynski, Peter David and Tori Amos.

Early work

At age five, Doran won an art contest sponsored by the Walt Disney Company. [13] Doran created her comic book series, A Distant Soil, at age twelve. [14]

Doran landed her first work for an advertising agency at age fifteen. [15] She attended Christopher Newport University for one year and the Art Institute of Pittsburgh online for one semester and used her professional works for curriculum credit. Science fiction artist Frank Kelly Freas was her mentor, and she apprenticed with him in the early 1980s [16] [17]

She broke into the comic book industry when still a teenager, scouted by Tom Long for his fanzine Graphic Showcase. [18] Long hired Doran to draw a revival of the 1940s character Miss Fury. Underage Doran quit the assignment due to its adult content. [19] She also contributed illustrations to the Hugo Award nominated fanzine Lan's Lantern. [20]

A Distant Soil was published in fanzines as early as 1979, then scouted by The Donning Company Starblaze imprint before it was contracted by WaRP Graphics. [21] Doran left the company after nine issues due to an acrimonious dispute with WaRP, [22] which attempted to claim copyright and trademark on her work. [23] [24] [25] The WaRP version of the story has never been reprinted despite its unusual all-pencil style, and Doran's ownership of the publishing rights.

Career

Doran discarded the 300 pages of work she did at Warp, and rewrote and redrew the entire A Distant Soil story from scratch, first with Donning, then as a self-publisher. A 1000-page long-form comics narrative, it has been published by Image Comics since 1996. It sold more than 700,000 copies in multiple printings. [26] The production archives were destroyed by the printer, and an extensive restoration process brought the series back to publication in 2013. [15]
