an Brereton is one of a bare handful of painters left in the industry who still do comics full time. Just barely out of art school, Dan burst onto the scene in 1989 with the award winning BLACK TERROR miniseries (Eclipse Comics) and hasn't looked back since. In the last 12 years, he's produced an amazingly prolific body of work, has been nominated many times for several different industry and fan awards.

Dan lived in the Sierra Nevada mountains with his three kids and a string of ill-fated pets and has just moved to Nevada. Dan's hobbies include reading crime fiction, watching monster movies (and pretty much any other kind of movie he can get his hands on), travelling to comic conventions, and wrangling his children by way of threats, intimidation and candy.
