Jim Cheung
Jim Cheung (/tʃʌŋ/ CHUNG; born 1972) is a British comic book artist, known for his work on the series such as Scion, New Avengers: Illuminati, Young Avengers and Avengers: The Children's Crusade.
He co-created the Marvel superhero team the Young Avengers, including its members: Kate Bishop, Hulkling, Iron Lad, Patriot (Eli Bradley), Speed, and Wiccan.
Career
Cheung worked on several Marvel series during the mid- to late 1990s. He also worked on Scion for Crossgen Comics in the early 2000s. He later returned to Marvel, where he illustrated the five-issue New Avengers: Illuminati mini-series for Marvel Comics, and then pencilled two more issues of New Avengers. He was named in August 2005 as one of Marvel's "Young Guns", a group of artists that, according to Marvel Editor-in-Chief Joe Quesada, have the qualities that make "a future superstar penciller". Other "Young Guns" include Olivier Coipel, David Finch, Trevor Hairsine, Adi Granov and Steve McNiven. Cheung illustrated the 2010-2012 miniseries Avengers: The Children's Crusade. In addition to interior comics work, he has drawn several covers including those of "Avengers vs. X-Men", "Spider-Men" and the Young Avengers.
In 2015, Marvel enlisted Cheung to create an Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. poster for a panel devoted to that TV series at that year's San Diego Comic-Con. He drew the Dead No More: The Clone Conspiracy limited series in 2016 with writer Christos Gage and Dan Slott.
in February 2018 Cheung created promo art for a relaunched Marvel Universe, called the Fresh Start. That March, it was announced that Cheung would be the artist on a relaunched Justice League series.
