MICHAEL MANNING Michael is the creator of the erotic graphic novels The Spider Garden, Hydrophidian, In A Metal Web I and II, and Tranceptor (all NBM Publishing). He studied at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, and began publishing comics in 1987 while working as an animator and director of short films and music videos. A move to San Francisco’s Mission District in 1991 coincided with Michael’s decision to focus on erotic illustration and gallery shows full-time. His admiration for the Symbolist and Pre-Raphaelite art movements as well as the classical ukiyo-e prints of Tsukioka Yoshitoshi and Unagawa Kuniyoshi has contributed to the formulation of Manning’s distinct style. Michael's latest contribution to Graphic Classics is an adaptation of H.P. Lovecraft's The Thing on the Doorstep for Horror Classics, and he is now illustrating the Alexandre Dumas short story The Masked Ball for Adventure Classics.
