Walt Simonson
Walt Simonson is a Bronze Age writer-artist best known for Manhunter, Star Slammers, and his defining run on Thor, where his work as both writer and artist established the version of the title most closely associated with his name. For collectors, Simonson is closely tied to Bronze and Copper Age keys, first appearances, and creator-driven runs that serve as reference points for how a single cartoonist can reshape a title's long-term collector focus.
