The Book, Cat, & Cat Book Lovers Almanac

of historical trivia regarding books, cats, and other animals. Actually this blog has evolved so that it is described better as a blog about cats in history and culture. And we take as a theme the advice of Aldous Huxley: If you want to be a writer, get some cats. Don't forget to see the archived articles linked at the bottom of the page.

December 4, 1960

According to a fan site, Geof Isherwood (December 4, 1960)

"... drew comics for Marvel, DC and Broadway from 1982-1998. He has published work for Heroes Of The North and Kingstone Comics from 2011 to present. He also works in films doing storyboards and concept art, notably on X-Men:DOFP and X-Men:Apocalypse. He also teaches concept art and figure drawing at Algonquin College in Ottawa."

He sketches a variety of feline females, like we see in this thumbnail----









He also gets credit for some Catwoman depictions.

Isherwood's website has more of his art, and biographical details. And this database attempts an exhaustive listing of his comic book work.  Another is chattier about his career. But wiki is the only one that gives a birth date, and they are so often wrong. Hope not this time.
