Sienkiewicz

 

   

Extraordinary comic book artist, Bill Sienkiewicz (AKA Boleslav Felix Sienkiewicz) was born on May 3, 1958 in Blakely Pennsylvania.  He was raised in northern New Jersey and now resides in Westport Connecticut. 

In can be said that in the world of mainstream superhero comic artists, most practitioners are working on a variation of an archetype established by Jack Kirby. And why not? The man was a master of his medium: his characters were drawn with dark, thick lines, dressed in fantastic costumes covering realistic musculature, and set in active poses. The old adage, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it," has long applied (and to some extent, still applies) to the superhero comic market.
