Palm Beach County, FL – The Palm Beach County Library System is excited to host celebrated Marvel Comics illustrator Jerry DeCaire for two live, free drawing performances. DeCaire, known for his work on the iconic Wolverine and Deadpool comics, will showcase his dynamic artistic process in real-time.
DeCaire began his career with Marvel in 1991 with his first professional assignment, X-Men Annual #15. He went on to work on numerous popular titles, including Wolverine, The Mighty Thor and Iron Man. His artwork for Deadpool in the Secret Defenders series has been featured in several modern publications, and his most recent published work can be found in 2024's X-Men: X-Tinction Agenda (Omnibus). A highlight of his career was being featured in an eight-page article in China's Fantasy Art Magazine as an exemplary Western artist.
The presentations, titled "The Superhero in Real-Time," explore the fascinating connections between science, mathematics, and the superhero archetype. DeCaire has presented this popular program at major comic conventions across the country, including Wizard World in Chicago and Dragon Con in Atlanta. Attendees will have the opportunity to see his creative process up close. The artist always signs and gives away his demo-drawings and autographed, full color prints to a few attendees at every event. Don't miss this chance to witness the art of a comics legend.
