Latest Comic Guest Announcement - Kenneth Rocafort

FIRST UK APPEARANCE
Artist: The Ultimates; Red Hood and the Outlaws; Superman; Teen Titans; Madame Mirage
STARTING out as an illustrator working in advertising while also producing art for card games and toy boxes and serving as a set/costume designer in theatres in his native Puerto Rico, Kenneth Rocafort's first comics art was producing a variant cover for 2004's Victory #4 for Image.
Coming up for year later he shared the art credit on the one and only issue of Nifty Comics' Cadre but it would be over 12 months more before he would begin to make his name. That was with a four-issue run on Hunter-Killer for Top Cow, celebrated artist Marc Silvestri's Image imprint, for which he then moved on to the six issues Madam Mirage, a comic created by Paul Dini, the producer/writer responsible for many Warner Bros TV shows that are integral to the DC Animated Universe.
Following his collaboration with Dini and a smattering of one-offs, Rocafort moved to Marvel for 2008's Astonishing Tales: Wolverine/Punisher six-parter and then back to Image/Top Cow for the five issues of the following year's Cyberforce/Hunter-Killer and 2010's Velocity four-parter.
A year later the Puerto Rican artist arrived at DC where, after a variant cover for Superman #709 and two issues of Action Comics he was assigned to illustrate Red Hood and the Outlaws for which he drew the first 11 issues as well as the covers to #1-14. After that run came Superman (for which he drew nine issues between 2012 and 2014) and then 2014 relaunch of Teen Titans for which he also illustrated issues #1-11.
He is now back at Marvel as the illustrator of The Ultimates, which launches imminently.
