Marcelo Frusin

Marcelo Frusin (born 27 December 1967 in Rosario) is an international Argentine comic book artist. His notable works include a run on ''Hellblazer''.

Biography

Frusin started his career working for the Argentine Columba Publishing house in 1993. For the Italian publisher Universo, he has illustrated the ''Niko Slavo'' series in ''Intrepido'' magazine between 1994 and 1997. In 1998 he started working for the US market in Marvel Comics, making pencils for ''X-Men Unlimited'', written by Tom DeFalco. He later worked for Acclaim Comics also drawing pencils for ''Magnus, Robot Fighter'', scripted by Tom Peyer.

Frusin's style resembles his fellow Argentine artist Eduardo Risso (''100 Bullets''). Like Risso, Frusin has worked with Brian Azzarello on the Vertigo title ''Hellblazer'', where his work has become well known, before joining Azzarello on '' Loveless'' (with fellow Argentine Leonardo Manco taking over on ''Hellblazer'' art duties). He has contributed to other Vertigo titles including '' Flinch'', ''Weird War Tales'' and '' Weird Western Tales Special''. In addition to his work for Vertigo, Frusin also illustrated two issues of ''Magnus, Robot Fighter'', and a story for ''X-Men Unlimited''.
