Dave Wachter Gallery
Dave Wachter has been creating comics since childhood, but his career as an adult began in 2004 when he and writer Jim Clark teamed up for their critically acclaimed self published series Scar Tissue. Following that success, the creative duo once again collaborated on the epic Western webcomic The Guns of Shadow Valley, which was nominated for an Eisner Award for “Best Digital Comic” and a Harvey Award for “Best Online Work.”
A graduate of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, Dave’s work has been featured in numerous anthologies, and as a guest artist on the webcomic Mystery Solved. He is the artist on Tell Them Johnny Wadd Is Here for Terminal Press, the celebrated adaptation of the notorious John Holmes film. His work for larger comic publishers began in 2010 with Robert Bloch’s That Hellbound Train (penned by Joe and John Lansdale), for IDW Publishing. Dave’s work as a guest artist can also been seen in their Godzilla series and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. In 2012, he teamed with writer Bobby Curnow for the horror fable Night of 1,000 Wolves, also for IDW. That same year brought a nomination for the Russ Manning “Most Promising Newcomer Award” in comics. Dave has more comics projects on the way for 2013, including a project with writer Steve Niles titled Breath of Bones: A Tale of the Golem for Dark Horse Comics, and a return of The Guns of Shadow Valley this Spring.
Having grown up outside Cincinnati, and spending a large portion of his life in Chicago, Dave now resides amongst the thriving comics and art scene (not to mention the many hills and bridges) of Pittsburgh.
