“I wouldn’t be in comics if it wasn’t for Mike Allred.”—Matt Fraction

About The Author
Michael Allred
Michael Allred grew up in the 60’s and 70’s surrounded by pop culture, music, movies, and comic books, including the Beatles, Bond, and Batman. He keeps a hand in film and music (he’s the lead singer and guitarist for The Gear), but comic books have always been a primary source of joy for him, and that joy remains the main ingredient in most of his work.
Allred first found success in comics with his popular MADMAN series, which is being developed for a live-action film with Robert Rodriguez. His earlier work from GRAFIK MUZIK was turned into the cult hit movie G-Men from Hell directed by Christopher Coppola (featuring Robert Goulet as the Devil). Other work includes Red Rocket 7, his history of Rock and Roll told in a sci-fi adventure story, the Madman spin-off THE ATOMICS, and THE GOLDEN PLATES, where he illustrates the Book of Mormon.
Mike credits his success to his wife and creative partner, Laura Allred, considered one of the best colorists in the business.
