Jim Valentino aka Valentino, (born October 28 1952 in The Bronx, New York), is an American writer, penciler, editor and publisher of comic books.
He began his career in the late 1970s creating small press and mostly autobiographical comics. The early-mid 1980s saw normalman which first appeared as a back-up story in Aardvark-Vanaheim's Cerebus. Aardvark-Vanaheim's Dave and Deni (Dave's wife at the time) began publishing normalman as a 13 issue limited series but only did so until #8, when Deni began her own publishing company, Renegade Press which finished the series. Remegade also published three issues of his self-titled series, Valentino in the mid-late 80s.
In the late 80s he began working for Marvel Comics on their superhero titles. His most notable work for the company was as writer and artist on the future-set super-hero series Guardians of the Galaxy and selected issues of What If...? plus fill-ins on most of Marvel's major titles.
He left Marvel in 1992 to co-found Image Comics with Erik Larsen, Jim Lee, Rob Liefeld, Todd McFarlane and Marc Silvestri. Valentino originated several projects at Image, which he published through his own "Shadowline" imprint. Unlike at Marvel, where Valentino worked on characters owned by that company, the original "Shadowline" titles were all creator-owned.
Of these the titles the most notable was the super-hero series ShadowHawk, on which he was both writer and artist. In 1997 he began another series in black and white called A Touch of Silver, a semi-autobiographical novel about a young comic book fan coming of age in the 1960s. Also during this time he repackaged most of his earliest autobiograpical work into a trade paperback called Vignettes, with an introduction by Dave Sim.
In 1999 he became the publisher of Image Comics. Under his directorship the company diversified its line considerably. The results were mixed. On one hand, Valentino's efforts led to the discovery of a number of talented creators, including David Mack and Brian Michael Bendis. On the other hand Image Comics saw a drop in overall sales. Still, he was able to turn the company's first profit in nearly a decade by opening new revenue streams such as sales to traditional book stores and libraries.
