The artist, writer and indie pioneer turns 59…
As regular 13th Dimension readers know, we usually post a 13 COVERS gallery to celebrate an artist’s birthday. But we frequently change it up too, as is the case here.
Why? Because artist Matt Wagner — born Oct. 9, 1961 — has been doing something really cool on Facebook: a mostly daily Quarantine Gallery of illustrations and commissions from the last few years.
It’s gorgeous, eclectic stuff, so we’ve pulled 13 of our faves — including DC and Marvel characters, as well his Wagner’s own Grendel and Mage, plus one hilarious surprise.

ZARDOZ!

LOVE LOVE LOVE the Red Tornado illustration. Never saw it before and sure didn’t expect to be included among the others.

These are great! Classic renderings. My favorite other than Bats is the Captain Mar-Vell.
