Adam Hughes (born May 5, 1967) is an American comic book artist and illustrator who has provided illustration work for companies such as DC Comics, Marvel Comics, Dark Horse Comics, Lucasfilm, Warner Bros. Pictures, Playboy magazine, Joss Whedon's Mutant Enemy Productions, and Sideshow Collectibles.
He is best known to American comic book readers for his renderings of pinup-style female characters, and his cover work on titles such as Wonder Woman and Catwoman. He is known as one of comics' foremost cheesecake artists, and one of the best known and distinctive comic book cover artists.
Adam Hughes was born in 1967 in Riverside Township, New Jersey and grew up in Florence Township, New Jersey, staying there until he was 24.
Hughes, who had no formal training in art, began his career in 1987. His first comic book work was a pinup in Eagle #6. He penciled two short stories and the first issue of Death Hawk, created by Mark Ellis. In 1988 Hughes' work appeared in Comico's Maze Agency with co-creator/writer Mike W. Barr. Hughes produced his first color work for the book, and because he aspired to ink his own work one day, took Wagner's suggestion that he produce pinups on each issue's back cover as an advertisement for the next issue to practice inking his own pencils. Hughes stayed on the series for a year. In 1989, he did his first work for DC Comics, doing both covers and interior art on Justice League America for two years, before switching to providing covers only.
