Bruno Premiani

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bruno Premiani (1924-1984?) was an illustrator known for his work for several comic book publishers, particularly DC Comics.

Born in Trieste, Italy in 1924, Premiani achieved some fame for his comics illustration work, most notably the original incarnations of the Doom Patrol in 1963 and the Teen Titans in 1964, both series being cult favourites that have survived in one form or another since their original creation for the DC Comics universe. He is also cited as the original artist for the first adventures of Cave Carson, a spelunker/geologist and adventurer also part of DC's fictional pantheon since 1960, and is among the first published Tomahawk artists. His work in the field dates as far back as 1937 in the pages of Detective Comics.

He is believed to have died in Argentina in 1984.
