Shane White (born 1970) is an American illustrator, comic book artist and author from Massena, New York. His earliest comic work appeared in small-press comics in the mid-80s. He created several of his own characters which he published under the Insane Productions banner. His first professional penciling gig was for Silverwolf Comic's (Greater Mercury Comics) Eradicators in 1990. Several years later he did work for DC's BIG BOOK OF URBAN LEGENDS. In 1998 Caliber Comics hired him along with Martin Powell to adapt Whitley Streiber's Communion book of which 2 of the 4 issues were ever finished. More recently his first graphic novel North Country, a 96 page full-color memoir published by NBM Publishing, reveals the hard-scrabble life of living in a blue-collar milltown in upstate New York. He's currently doing the art for The Overman published by Image Comics with fellow comics writer, Scott Reed.
