Born on March 30, 1962, Greg Capullo is an American comic book artist whose career spans nearly four decades of consistent, high-profile work across Marvel, DC, and independent publishing. He broke into the industry in the late 1980s and built early momentum on Marvel titles including Quasar (1991–1992) and X-Force (1992–1993), developing the dynamic, energetic linework that would define his style.

His longest early collaboration came at Image Comics, where he pencilled Todd McFarlane's Spawn from 1993 to 2000, with a brief return in 2003–2004. During that run he also launched his own creator-owned project, The Creech, a pair of three-issue miniseries through Image. He additionally contributed artwork to album packaging for Iced Earth, Korn, and Disturbed, and worked on animated sequences for the 2002 film The Dangerous Lives of Altar Boys.

Capullo's most celebrated chapter began when he partnered with writer Scott Snyder on DC's Batman in 2011, a collaboration that ran through 2016 and produced some of the character's most talked-about modern storylines. That partnership extended into the company-wide events Dark Nights: Metal and Dark Nights: Death Metal. Through this DC work, Capullo co-created several enduring characters, including the Court of Owls, Mr. Bloom, and the Batman Who Laughs. With credits across more than 435 issues, his body of work remains among the most substantial in contemporary mainstream comics.
