Bob Burden (Buffalo, New York, 1952 〔https://www.lambiek.net/artists/b/burden_bob.htm〕) is an American comic book artist and writer, best known as the creator of ''Flaming Carrot Comics'' and the ''Mystery Men''. ==Career== Burden’s best-known creation is ''Flaming Carrot'', which appeared in 1979. He worked as writer and editor with lettering by Roxanne Starr. It has received some scholarly recognition: a cover story and interview in Atlanta's prestigious ''Art Papers''; an original cover drawing in Sotheby's art auction; and reviews in ''The Village Voice'' literary supplement. Burden's ''Mystery Men'' was the subject of a 1999 film adaptation, directed by Kinka Usher and starring Ben Stiller and Geoffrey Rush. Besides ''Flaming Carrot Comics'' and ''Mysterymen'', Burden wrote a Gumby story, a two-part Cholly & Flytrap story with Arthur Suydam, and ''Robot Comics'', a series which was reprised as the "Robot Crime" story for the 20th anniversary of ''Heavy Metal''. Bob Burden has also produced some prose work, including a short story called "You've Got Your Troubles, I've Got Mine", and an anthology of short stories by various writers, including Stephen King, called ''Dark Love'', from Penguin Books. Though he has drawn a number of comics, Burden has said that he considers himself solely a writer: "I'm a writer, okay? The fact that I draw art is purely coincidental to that, but I'm not really what you'd call a competent illustrator." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bob Burden」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
