Sina Grace

Grace grew up in the suburbs of Santa Monica, in Los Angeles, California, deciding on a career in comic books in elementary school, when he would copy Batman stories and draw them himself on printer paper. Grace extended his passion for comic books throughout high school, interning for Top Cow Comics after school prior to enrolling at the University of California-Santa Cruz, majoring in creative writing.

After graduating from UC Santa Cruz, Grace illustrated Among The Ghosts for Buffy the Vampire Slayer's Amber Benson, and soon after became editorial director, and the very first employee, for Robert Kirkman's Skybound Comics. While at Skybound, Grace worked on titles such as The Walking Dead and Invincible, while simultaneously providing artwork for the Image Comics series The Li'l Depressed Boy with Isabell Struble. Upon his departure from Skybound, Grace embarked on a journey of self-discovery, writing and doing artwork for the one-off releases Not My Bag (2012) and Self-Obsessed (2014), both published and released via Image Comics. Grace also released the video game send-up series Burn The Orphanage with Daniel Freedman, as well with Image Comics. During this time Grace would also produce a web-series based on his work in Self-Obsessed, along with providing artwork for musician and actress Jenny Lewis. Grace would culminate his series of memoirs with Nothing Lasts Forever in 2017, published once again by Image Comics. In 2017 Grace was hired by Marvel Comics to write the first series for long-running character Iceman who had recently come out. Despite the series being cancelled after 11 issues in March 2018, sales and fan support were so overwhelming that the series returned for another run culminating in a reboot and another five-issue series arc ending in January 2019. After his run with Marvel had ended, Grace posted an essay outlining his experiences working for Marvel on his personal Tumblr account. Among the topics within the essay, Grace has stated that he felt a lack of support for LGBTQIA+ content and its creators, as well as turning a blind eye when the creator was attacked online for his work celebrating a major queer storyline. Grace is currently working on several titles, including writing Jughead's Time Police for Archie Comics, co-writing Go Go Power Rangers for BOOM! Comics, and writing his own original series Ghosted in L.A. for BOOM! Comics.
