Alex Maleev doesn't do many interviews, preferring to let his work speak for him. And if you could illustrate like he can, you'd probably take the same approach. Most know Alex from his defining run with frequent collaborator Brian Michael Bendis (BMB) on Daredevil. But he had an interesting path to that project, and has only evolved after it. After moving to the U.S. from Bulgaria in 1995, he quickly got work on a succession of high-profile projects, including The Crow, storyboarding the Lost in Space movie, and contributing to Batman: No Man's Land. He first teamed with BMB on the Spawn spinoff Sam and Twitch, and they re-teamed many times after: from Daredevil and Spider-Woman to Moon Knight and their creator-owned Scarlet at Marvel's Icon imprint. 

Now, the dynamic duo is back together for Masterpiece at Dark Horse Comics. The first issue is out today (12/13/23), so go get it! And if you want to keep up with Alex, check out maleev.com, or follow him on Instagram @alex_maleev or on X @alexmaleev.
