Career

Upon graduating from the University of Texas at Austin with degrees in History, Government, and a teaching certificate.,[5] David auditioned for a job doing rotoscope animation on Richard Linklater's A Scanner Darkly which he heard about through a weekly sketch group he attended in college.[6] He got the animation job and credits this experience on A Scanner Darkly for showing him "how versatile a digital toolset can be"[6]

David Marquez "always wanted to draw comics"[7] so spent the next several years after finishing A Scanner Darkly both honing his drawing skills and seeking comics work at San Diego Comic Con.[7]

David draws primarily digitally,[8] and his first published comic book illustration work was in Archaia's original graphic novel, Syndrome with writers Daniel Quantz and R. J. Ryan in 2010, followed by Days Missing Vol. 2: Kestus for which he received a Russ Manning Most Promising Newcomer Award nomination.[8][9]

David's first Marvel work was with writer Jonathan Hickman on Secret Warriors #24, published in 2011.[6] Shortly after, he began drawing Marvel's original graphic novel, Fantastic Four: Season One with writer Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa, published in 2012.[10] Fantastic Four: Season One became a New York Times Best Seller toward the end of February that year.[11] Shortly after, David began drawing Ultimate Comics Spider-Man with writer Brian Michael Bendis[7]

David's first creator-owned original graphic novel, The Joyners in 3D, was published in 2014 through Archaia/BOOM! Studios.[4] Written by R.J. Ryan, David employed a different drawing style than his previous works.[12] He worked in collaboration with artist Tara Rhymes to develop and execute the 3-D process the two used on the book[3][4][13]
