Adi Granov

Adi Granov was born in Sarajevo in 1977. In 1994, during the Bosnian War, he left with his mother and sister for the United States, where he studied art and concept design.

Before comics he worked in video games, doing design for Nintendo Software Technology in Chicago. Marvel gave him his first job in 2004, and Joe Quesada soon named him one of the company's Young Guns.

His breakout was Iron Man: Extremis with Warren Ellis. Marvel Studios then brought him in to help design the Iron Man and Iron Monger suits for the 2008 film, and the Extremis story later became the basis for Iron Man 3.

He's since painted covers across Marvel's line, from Thor and the X-Men to Darth Vader #1, and he designed the Velocity Suit for Insomniac's Marvel's Spider-Man. He lives in West Yorkshire, England.
