Hans Steinbach
Hans Steinbach (Hanzo) is a German comic book artist, born in Damascus, Syria to a German father and a Syrian mother. He draws in a contemporary/gothic manga style. He has had no formal training as an artist, but has an elegant style that has been formed through being raised travelling around the world with his family. Hans has lived in Syria, Canada, Marseille, France, Bonn, Germany, Beirut, Lebanon, Ankara, Turkey, Montreal, Quebec and most recently Beverly Hills, California. Style His art in his first published novel, ''A Midnight Opera'' stands out against other styles, due to his misshapen bodies and the style in which he deceits their movement. This has been frowned upon at times, but has won over the majority of his audience. During the time he worked on ''Poison Candy'' he was described as: Bibliography *'' A Midnight Opera''(2005–2006, Tokyopop, 3 volumes) *''Poison Candy'' (2007) with Marvel comics' David Hine, a comic about the near future where the SKAR virus s ...

Comic Book Artist
A cartoonist is a visual artist who specializes in both drawing and writing cartoons (individual images) or comics (sequential images). Cartoonists differ from comics writers or comic book illustrators in that they produce both the literary and graphic components of the work as part of their practice. Cartoonists may work in a variety of formats, including booklets, comic strips, comic books, editorial cartoons, graphic novels, manuals, gag cartoons, storyboards, posters, shirts, books, advertisements, greeting cards, magazines, newspapers, webcomics, and video game packaging. Terminology Cartoonists may also be denoted by terms such as comics artist, comic book artist, graphic novel artist or graphic novelist. Ambiguity may arise because "comic book artist" may also refer to the person who only illustrates the comic, and "graphic novelist" may also refer to the person who only writes the script.

A Midnight Opera
''A Midnight Opera'' is an original English-language (OEL) manga by Hans Steinbach. It was published by Tokyopop in North America from November 8, 2005 to November 7, 2006. Plot The series focuses on two brothers, Ein and Leroux DeLaLune. Development Born in Syria, Hans Steinbach lived in many countries, including Germany, France, Turkey and Canada, before moving to the United States; there, he decided to submit a story idea to Tokyopop after seeing it was a major publisher in the States. Steinbach considered the story "a little too straight forward, too linear". Because it heavily focused on the missions Einblick carried out for the Catholic Church, Steinbech rewrote it, with help from his editor at Tokyopop, to allow Einblick's personality to develop. He changed Einblick from an assassin to "an undead, chain-smoking metalhead with a grudge". Steinbach was inspired by ''Phantom of the Opera'', since it combined horror and music, something Steinbach wanted to do for ''A Midnight O ...
