Richard Howell

Richard Howell (b. 1955) is a comic book artist who inked the background art for the Marvel comic version of The Dark Crystal. For the second issue of the Dinosaurs comic book, he and Jackson Guice co-penciled the story "Frannie, I Blew Up the Baby!"
Howell worked variously as penciler, inker, colorist, and sometimes writer and letterer. He spent a few years at DC Comics contributing issues of Green Lantern, Hawk Man, Blackhawk, and a longer stint on All-Star Squadron (1983-1986). Overlapping with his tenure at DC, he stayed longer at Marvel, where he penciled the six issue run of The Vision and Scarlet Witch (1985-1986) focusing on their family life (and the loose basis of WandaVision). He worked on Conan the Barbarian, The Further Adventures of Indiana Jones, What If...?, Web of Spider-Man, Power Man and Iron Fist, and Avengers Annual. He started his own comic publisher, Claypool Comics, which operated from 1993 to 2006.

* In 1980, Howell, with then-Marvel employee Paul Dini co-signing for the concept, supplied a spot cartoon to The Comics Journal depicting "The Brotherhood of Evil Muppets": Magneto from the X-Men comics surrounded by Muppets as other characters.
