“Dean Haspiel is trying to put as much work into his life as he is putting life into his work.”

I'm a native New Yorker and cartoonist. I'm a founding member of the free webcomix anthology, ACT-I-VATE, where I write & draw the weekly exploits of romantic bruiser BILLY DOGMA. I'm also a charter member of DEEP6 Studios in Brooklyn, NY. I illustrated for Pulitzer Prize winning author Michael Chabon’s THE ESCAPIST anthology [Dark Horse], adapted GOOSEBUMPS: REVENGE OF THE LAWN GNOMES [Scholastic Graphix], and drew monsters and superheroes for Marvel, DC, and Harris Comics, including SPIDER-MAN, X-MEN, CAPTAIN AMERICA, THE THING, BATMAN, BIZARRO, THE JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA, and VAMPIRELLA. I collaborated with Harvey Pekar on the critically-acclaimed graphic novel, THE QUITTER, and AMERICAN SPLENDOR. I'm currently illustrating THE ALCOHOLIC, a new graphic novel written by Jonathan Ames for Vertigo/DC Comics. BRAWL, a "creature romance double feature" mini-series by Michel Fiffe and I, comes this Fall from Image Comics.


NOTE: Due to the nature of the internet and various interpretations about online publishing, everything I write about my life and my work is copyright Dean Haspiel.
