Chris Sprouse has been drawing comics professionally since 1989, pencilling Legionnaires, Batman and Justice League books for DC Comics in the early '90's, followed by some Marvel work on various Spider-Man and X-Men titles. In 1995, Chris drew the Dark Horse Comics adaptation of the Star Wars novel Splinter of the Mind's Eye, then went on to provide art for various Image comics and trading cards. 1997 saw the artist teaming with legendary comics writer Alan Moore for the first time on a six-issue run of Supreme and with Warren Ellis and Kevin Nowlan on the WildC.A.T.S./Aliens one-shot comic. Moore and Sprouse reunited to create the character/comic book series Tom Strong that same year for ABC Comics/Wildstorm Productions. Tom Strong ran for 36 issues (plus a few specials) and has been published in several languages throughout Europe and the UK over the last decade. In 2004, Chris designed and drew the original graphic novel Ocean for writer Warren Ellis. A brief run on Wildstorm's Midnighter series was next, followed by the mini-series Number of the Beast in 2007-2008. In 2008, Chris was the subject of Volume 21 of Two Morrows Publications' Modern Masters series. The artist spent 2009 drawing a new Tom Strong mini-series, Tom Strong and the Robots of Doom (scheduled for publication in Spring/Summer 2010) and rang in the new year drawing the first issue of Grant Morrison's Batman: The Return of Bruce Wayne mini-series.
