Eric Shanower is the Eisner Award-winning and New York Times best selling cartoonist of Age of Bronze (Image Comics), a graphic novel retelling of the Trojan War. Age of Bronze is a work in progress. Four volumes have been published and the story is more than one-third complete. When finished, Age of Bronze will tell the entire story of the legendary war at Troy, weaving into one the many tellings and permutations of the story throughout the centuries. As a child, Shanower fell in love with the Oz books by L. Frank Baum and their illustrations by John R. Neill. Shanower decided to write and illustrate his own Oz books someday. Goal accomplished. Shanower's long list of contributions to the world of L. Frank Baum's Oz includes Marvel Comics' Eisner Award-winning, New York Times best selling adaptations of Baum's Oz books with cartoonist Skottie Young. Shanower is the writer of the comic series Little Nemo: Return to Slumberland (IDW) with art by Gabriel Rodriguez. This series resurrects Winsor McCay's classic comic strip Little Nemo in Slumberland for a modern audience. Shanower's illustrations have appeared in magazines, in childrens books, on stage, and on television. His comics have been published around the world and include such works as his Oz graphic novel series (currently collected as Adventures in Oz from IDW), An Accidental Death (Fantagraphics) with writer Ed Brubaker, The Elsewhere Prince (Marvel) with writers Moebius and R-JM Lofficier, and the introductory pages to Harlan Ellison's Dream Corridor (Dark Horse Comics). He resides in Portland, Oregon, with his partner. When he's not writing or drawing, he's often swimming, dancing, or reading, usually not all at the same time.
