Career

edit

DC Comics

edit

Tom Grummett began providing finished artwork overGeorge Pérez's layouts onTheNew Titans #58 (Sept. 1989).[1] He worked withMarv Wolfman and Pérez on the "A Lonely Place of Dying" storyline which introducedTim Drake as the newRobin.[2] Grummett remained onThe New Titans after Pérez's departure and helped Wolfman revitalize the title.[3] He began a long association with theSuperman franchise when he drewAction Comics #665 (May 1991)[1] and then helped writerLouise Simonson and artistJon Bogdanove launch a new title,Superman: The Man of Steel in July 1991.[4] Grummett drew part ofThe Adventures of Superman #480 (July 1991) and became the main artist on that series with the following issue[1] and then worked on the "Panic in the Sky" crossover in 1992.[5] During his run onThe Adventures of Superman, Grummett and writerJerry Ordway (along with editorMike Carlin,Dan Jurgens,Roger Stern and others) were the architects of "The Death of Superman" storyline, in which Superman died and was resurrected. It was during that storyline, that Grummett and writerKarl Kesel, created the newSuperboy inThe Adventures of Superman #500 (June 1993).[6] Grummett drew parts for DC Comics' other major event of the early 1990s, "Batman: Knightfall", contributing parts of "Knightquest" and "KnightsEnd". Grummett launched an ongoingRobin series in November 1993 with writerChuck Dixon[7] and aSuperboy series three months later with writer Karl Kesel.[8] In Summer 1995, writerRoger Stern and Grummett created a new quarterly series,Superman: The Man of Tomorrow.[9] He was one of the many artists who contributed to theSuperman: The Wedding Album one-shot in 1996 wherein the title character marriedLois Lane.[10] Other work for DC included collaborating with Chuck Dixon on aSecret Six one-shot (Dec. 1997) as part of theTangent Comics imprint[11] and co-creating thePower Company series with writerKurt Busiek in 2002.[12]

Gorilla Comics

edit

In 2000, Grummett and his formerSuperboy collaborator Karl Kesel createdSection Zero as part of theGorilla Comics imprint atImage Comics. Gorilla Comics was intended to be a creator owned company financed by a comics related website, eHero.com.[13] The website proved to be a financial failure, leaving the creators to personally finance their own books. Along with the other Gorilla Comics creators, Kesel and Grummett attempted to continue the series they started, but these efforts proved to be unsuccessful.[14] In January 2012, Kesel announced that he and Grummett would be relaunchingSection Zero as a webcomic on the Mad Genius Comics website.[15][16] The previously published stories were posted on the site and new material was added as it was completed.[17] AKickstarter campaign in 2017 will allow Kesel and Grummett to finish the story.[18][19]
