Georges Jeanty
Georges Jeanty is an American comic book penciler illustrator best known for his work on The American Way, an eight-issue American comic book limited series produced under DC Comics' Wildstorm imprint, and the Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Season Eight comic book series published by Dark Horse Comics, various issues of Serenity, X-Men: Gambit, Astonishing X-Men: Gambit, John Walker: U.S. Agent, and The Mandalorian.
Georges Michael Jeanty was born in Brooklyn, New York, and raised in Miami Beach, Florida. After attending courses in the fine arts at Miami-Dade College, he considered a career in acting, but decided to use his artistic talent to pursue a career as a commercial artist. Inspired by the comic books he read while growing up – featuring 1970s comic book superhero icons like Luke Cage, and classic superhero comics like Fantastic Four and Saga of the Swamp Thing – Jeanty made comic books his focus.
Jeanty specifically credits Frank Miller's Daredevil #183, as pivotal in his decision to pursue a career in comics.
His artist influences include American comic book artists John Byrne, Michael Golden, and Alan Davis, as well as European comic book artist legends Milo Manara and Jean Giraud (Moebius).
Jeanty's first break into comics was Paradigm #1 (1994) published by Caliber Comics. Soon after, he worked on the "bad girl" comics for London Night Studios, featuring various characters like Poizon, Stryke, and Razor. Moving to Atlanta in 1999, Jeanty joined the ranks of Atlanta-based Gaijin Studios.
After breaking in at DC Comics, on titles like Green Lantern, Superboy, and Superman, Marvel Comics offered Jeanty his first regular ongoing monthly series- Bishop: The Last X-Man (1999). Jeanty's Marvel work also included X-Men: Gambit, Astonishing X-Men: Gambit, Deadpool, Weapon X, and the X-Men Legends II: Rise of Apocalypse mini-comic for the Activision video game. During this time, in 2003, Jeanty left Gaijin Studios and after a year, formed Atlanta-based Studio Revolver, with Dexter Vines, Tom Feister, Brian Reiber, and Tariq Hassan.
In 2006, DC Comics imprint, Wildstorm Comics paired Jeanty with Hollywood screenwriter John Ridley, for The American Way, an eight-issue comic book mini-series that presented a skewed parallel history of the civil unrest during 1960s America, where the United States Government created its own "superheroes" and "villains" and arranged fake fights to influence public opinions.
While completing The American Way, Jeanty was contacted by Dark Horse Comics' Senior Managing Editor, Scott Allie, who asked if he was interested in working on a Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season Eight comic book. Buffy's creator, Joss Whedon, who had been a fan of Jeanty's work since Bishop: the Last X-Man, specifically asked for him. This was not the movie and television character's first foray into comics, between 1998 and 2004, Dark Horse Comics published various Buffy comics when the television show was on air, but not all the comics were considered canon.[citation needed] However, this new comic book series was to be the canonical continuation of the popular television series that aired for seven years, hence its name.
