Richard Bennett started his art career as a comic book artist in the early 1990’s, penciling and inking the Cyberad series for Continuity Comics. He worked on various X-Men titles for Marvel Comics before moving to WildStorm in 1994. There, he co-created the character and mini-series Brass with Jim Lee, in which Bennett wrote the story and drew all the artwork, and contributed to a variety of titles including StormWatch, Gen13, WildC.A.T.S, Divine Right, and more.
Working on film was always his long term goal while working in comics, and Bennett ignited his passion for the television and movie industry while working as a background and character design illustrator for the HBO series Spawn. A year later he attended the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, graduating with a BFA in Illustration.
Bennett has worked on over 60 major motion pictures including Zodiac, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, The Social Network, Star Trek, Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol, Avengers, Captain America: Winter Soldier, Captain America: Civil War, Tron: Legacy, Dunkirk, Tenet, and Spider-Man: No Way Home.
