Jason Loo
1982–
Jason Loo is a Canadian cartoonist and writer known for his work in both independent comics and mainstream superhero titles.

Loo’s path into comics began in the late 2000s, and his art style—clean, expressive, and energetic—became a hallmark of his independent work. He has been a key collaborator with writer Chip Zdarsky, with whom he shared the 2020 Eisner Award for Best Digital Comic for *Afterlift*. Loo’s credits include writing and drawing for Marvel’s *Marvel’s Voices: Spider-Verse*, as well as the series *The AllNighter* and *The Last Paper Route*. He has also been nominated for a Harvey Award, a Joe Shuster Award, and a Doug Wright Award. Loo’s later career has seen him balance creator-owned projects with work for major publishers, solidifying his reputation as a versatile storyteller. His legacy includes championing diverse, character-driven narratives in Canadian comics.
