Scott Reed

Scott Reed (born 1970) is an American illustrator, comic book artist and author from Reedsville, Ohio. His earliest comic work as a writer and inker appeared in Silverwolf Comics (Greater Mercury Comics) Eradicators in 1990. In 1993, he worked on-staff as an inker for Malibu Comics until 1996, when he was hired by Dark Horse Comics to provide inks for Godzilla and G.I. Joe Extreme comic book mini-series. For the next several years, he produced creator-owned online comics under his self-publishing label Webs Best Comics. In 2007, he and artist Shane White collaborated on The Overman, an apocalyptic noir science fiction mini-series published by Image Comics. In 2010, Reed wrote two mini-series for Marvel Comics: Realm of Kings: Son of Hulk, and Incredible Hulks: Enigma Force, which re-introduced several Microverse characters into the Marvel Universe. Both series were penciled by Miguel Munera. In 2012, Reed wrote, illustrated and published Saga Of A Doomed Universe, a graphic novel included in Boing-Boing's 'Best Damn Comics of the Year' of 2012. The first two issues of Reed's planned 6-issue comic book mini-series, Hark, was published in 2020 and 2022 under his creator-owned label Beyond Forward Comics. Saga of a Doomed Universe was re-published in a special edition format in 2023 by CEX Publishing, which included new variant cover art by Reed. A character co-created by Reed, Jentorra, was prominently featured in the 2023 Marvel Studios film Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. He is currently developing a sequel to Saga of a Doomed Universe.
