Given his first break by veteran comics artist Dan Adkins, [3] Bingham's first published comics work was a Green Arrow backup story in World's Finest Comics #251 (June–July 1978).

He drew the Batman: Son of the Demon graphic novel in 1987, which introduced a character later revealed to be Damian Wayne.

Leaving comics in the late 1990s, Bingham moved to the West Coast, where he did production art for the movies, designing props, special effects and monster make-up. He contributed design work for Walt Disney Parks and Resorts, shopping centers, Universal Studios, and the Hollywood Christmas Parade.

Dan [Adkins] lived in New Jersey, so I went over and visited, and he let me stay on his couch for a couple of weeks and he set up a second drawing board. I sat at the board and he told me what I was doing wrong and helped me work up a whole new bunch of samples. At the end of the two weeks he took me into New York and introduced me to Archie Goodwin, who was editor-in-chief of Marvel at the time. Archie, possibly the best and nicest boss ever in comics, gave me my first job.
