Udon Studios

Udon Studios is a Canadian art studio and publisher founded in 2000, named after the Japanese noodle. The company is best known for producing original and translated comic books, graphic novels, manga, and art books tied to anime and video games. Based in Canada, Udon has been active in the industry since its founding, with credits spanning 2002 to 2020 across 62 issues. Their most-credited titles include *Spider-Girl*, *Agente X*, *Citizen V and the V-Battalion: The Everlasting*, *Marvel Age Spider-Man*, *Agent X*, and *Marvel Manga*. The studio’s signature style blends clean, dynamic linework with vibrant coloring, often adapting Western superheroes into a manga-influenced aesthetic. Key collaborators have included Marvel Comics, for whom they produced numerous licensed works. Udon is particularly noted for co-creating the *Street Fighter* comic series and art books, which helped bridge video game and comic audiences. Later projects expanded into original manga and art collections, solidifying their role as a bridge between Eastern and Western comic traditions. While the studio has not received major individual awards, its work remains influential in the licensed comics space.
