Spanish-born artist Gabriel Hernández Walta worked as both a cartoonist and a painter in the European art scene for years, but it wasn’t until 2003 that he began working in American comics, drawing one of the miniseries for Jeff Mariotte’s CVO at IDW.

After CVO he moved over to adapt Clive Barker’s Thief Of Always novel and in 2006 he drew the lead story in Scholastic’s Goosebumps graphic novel and then chipped in on an issue of DC/Vertigo’s Crossing Midnight. He kept up his commitment to IDW however, drawing the miniseries The Veil which showed the artist really stepping out and being noticed. IDW later published his European graphic novel The Suicide Forest, while Walta himself was working on new pages for Marvel. Pegged early on as a talent to watch with a story in 2010′s Breaking Into Comics The Marvel, Walta did a variety of X-Men related shorts in various anthologies like X Necrosha: The Gathering #1, Nation X #3 and Age Of X: Alpha #1, he got his first solo issue for the Big Two when drawing 2010′s X-Men: Curse of the Mutants – Smoke & Blood.

Most recently, Walta did a segment of Magneto: Not A Hero series showing Magneto in a flashback, and was also drafted to do a one-off issue of DC/Vertigo’s The Unwritten.
