Career
Career
Campbell has served as both writer and illustrator for various comics, even creating several of her own graphic novels, including The Abandoned, Mountain Girl, Shadoweyes, Wet Moon, and Water Baby. She got her start in 2003 with Oni Press with her first work, Too Much Hopeless Savages!, done in cooperation with Christine Norrieis. In 2008, she drew the story "The Hollows" for the first issue of the DC/Vertigo comic House of Mystery written by Bill Willingham. Beginning in 2012 she drew a run of Image Comics' Glory series written by Joe Keatinge. She drew issues of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles for IDW, and in March 2015 she became the artist for their new Jem and the Holograms series written by Kelly Thompson. Her artwork has been praised for affording dignity to all the characters she draws. From June 2009 to March 2013, she was co-host on AudioShocker's "A Podcast with Ross and Nick", followed by "Everything Blows with Ross and Nick". In January 2020, Campbell took over as both writer and artist of the mainline IDW TMNT book. This run of TMNT has drawn online push back due to its inclusion of the characters Jennika and Sheena's relationship as well as Sophie’s soft and rounder art style. in August of 2021, Campbell accepted a deal with Substack to work on the sequel to Shadoweyes, Shadoweyes For Good, available on the site to subscribers. In February 2025, it was announced that Campbell would be the writer and artist for a new ongoing volume of Supergirl for DC Comics. The first issue of this new volume released in May of 2025, and focuses on Supergirl relocating back to her human parents' home of Midvale and taking a young Kandorian woman named Lesla-Lar under her wing as a new superhero named Luminary. The series has released twelve issues as of April of 2026, with issues eleven and twelve tying into DC's Reign of the Superboys event.
