American cartoonist (born 1963)
Mark Bodē (() born February 18, 1963) is an American cartoonist . The son of underground comics legend Vaughn Bodē , Mark shares the Bodē family style and perpetuates many of his late father's creations as well as his own works . He is best known for his work on Cobalt-60 Miami Mice The Lizard of Oz Heavy Metal The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Bodē is also a tattoo and graffiti artist , spending many years working around Northampton, Massachusetts , although he now lives in California.[1]
Early life
[ edit ]
Mark Bodē was born February 18, 1963, in Utica, New York , the son of the cartoonist Vaughn Bodē and Barbara Falcon. He began drawing at age three, and was encouraged to draw throughout his childhood.[1]
He'd put a marker in my hand, and say, 'Color this area,' and make sure I didn't go crazy going outside the lines. We'd always race up this hill by our house, knock on a manhole cover and yell for Cheech. I asked him why he never came out, and he'd say, 'Well, he's chasing women and doing tricks.' He was brainwashing me into seeing his world, so the characters I started coming up with were heavily influenced by him. Right before he died he told me: 'We'll always be Bodē and son. Share my style, but don't get too close.' I couldn't wait to work with him.[1]
When Bodē was 12 years old and visiting his divorced father Vaughn in San Francisco , he discovered the dead body of his father after the latter had died as the result of autoerotic asphyxiation .[2]
Bodē attended art school in Oakland, California . He also studied animation at San Francisco State University . In 1982, he attended the School of Visual Arts (SVA) in New York City as a fine arts major.[citation needed
While attending SVA, Bodē met Marvel Comics editor Archie Goodwin , who was starting up a new magazine called Epic Illustrated [3]
