Deodato Taumaturgo Borges Filho, better known by his pen name Mike Deodato ( ; born May 23, 1963), is a Brazilian Cartoonist.

Early life

Mike Deodato was born on May 23, 1963, in Campina Grande, Paraíba, Brazil. He is the son of comic artist Deodato Borges.

Career

One of Deodato's first works was a 1993 photo-realistic comic book adaptation of the television series Beauty and the Beast published by Innovation Publishing. Deodato became famous in the North American comic book industry for his work with writer William Messner-Loebs on Wonder Woman, during which he co-created the character Artemis of Bana-Mighdall.

After his Wonder Woman project, he became the penciller of Thor, where he worked firstly with writer Warren Ellis and then again with writer William Messner-Loebs. Later he drew Glory for Rob Liefeld's Extreme Studios at Image Comics and Maximum Press.

While his style in the mid-1990s was highly reminiscent of Jim Lee, he has recently changed to a more simplified, photo-realistic and sometimes moody style. His first work with this new artistic identity was The Incredible Hulk, written by Bruce Jones. Since then, he has worked on the Doctor Strange spin-off Witches and became the regular penciller of The Amazing Spider-Man and The New Avengers. Deodato then took over as regular penciller for the Marvel title Thunderbolts with issue 110, once again collaborating with Warren Ellis. Deodato then became the regular artist for the Dark Avengers ongoing series which came out of the conclusion of Secret Invasion. With writer Ed Brubaker, he launched the ongoing series Secret Avengers in May 2010, before returning to New Avengers.

In 2012 he became the penciller of The Avengers and The New Avengers. Deodato worked with Jason Aaron on the eight-issue flagship comic of Marvel's 2014 crossover storyline, Original Sin. In 2017 Deodato drew the Astonishing X-Men ongoing series with writer Charles Soule. He drew the Infinity Wars limited series in 2018 with writer Gerry Duggan.

In March 2019 Deodato announced that he would leave Marvel after his upcoming run on Savage Avengers. Following the expiration of his Marvel contract, he worked with DC to create a Batman-centric Comic-Con Experience 2019 poster. The poster, colored by Marcelo Maiolo, will honor Batman's 80th anniversary.

In March 2020 Deodato and writer J. Michael Straczynski started the series The Resistance. The series were one of four inaugural releases comprising a new shared universe within the publisher's Upshot imprint.
