Rick Remender (born February 6, 1973) is an American animator, comic book writer and television producer who resides in Los Angeles, California. As a comic book creator, he is best known for his work on Uncanny X-Force, Venom, Captain America and Uncanny Avengers, published by Marvel, as well as his creator-owned series Fear Agent, Deadly Class, Black Science and Low, published by Image. In video games, he wrote EA's Dead Space and Epic Games' Bulletstorm.
In 2019, Sony Pictures Television adapted Deadly Class into a television series of the same name, for which Remender served as a showrunner and lead writer.
Career
[edit]Remender started out in animation, working on such films as The Iron Giant, Anastasia, Titan A.E. and The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle.[1] In 1998, he teamed up with fellow animator Harper Jaten to create the absurdist humor series Captain Dingleberry, which, after four issues of self-publishing, was picked up by SLG Publishing.[2] Remender contributed several short strips to Kieron Dwyer's anthology series Lowest Comic Denominator, and the pair went on to co-create Black Heart Billy, again published by SLG Publishing.[3] Black Heart Billy was canceled after two issues in 2000 and collected/finished by AiT/PlanetLar in 2002 to coincide with the release of Remender's first solo writing work, the graphic novel Doll and Creature.[4]
Remender continued working in animation, co-creating and directing the Flash animated series Swing Town for Wild Brain Animation. His other work of the period includes inking assignments for Marvel's The Avengers, art for several issues of Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and the comic book adaptation of Bruce Campbell's Man with the Screaming Brain as well as short comics and album covers for Fat Wreck Chords, a Bay Area punk label. During this time, he also taught comics, animation and storyboarding at the Academy of Art University.[1] In 2005, Remender began working primarily with Image, launching several creator-owned titles such as Sea of Red,[5] Strange Girl[6] and Fear Agent.[7][8][9] Later work for Image includes horror series Sorrow, co-written with Seth Peck,[10] and Crawl Space,[11] an anthology series for various works by Remender and his long-time collaborator Kieron Dwyer that was discontinued after its initial storyline XXXombies.[12]
In 2007, Remender moved Fear Agent to Dark Horse[13] and launched two new creator-owned titles at the publisher, the superhero series The End League[14] and the giant robot series Gigantic.[15][16] At the same time, Remender began working for Marvel as a writer, joining Matt Fraction on Punisher War Journal and staying with the character to launch the new volume that tied in to the status quo resulting from the events of the 2008-09 "Dark Reign" storyline. In April 2009, Remender signed an exclusive contract with Marvel,[17] though it allowed him to release The Last Days of American Crime through Radical.[18][19] Further work for Marvel includes Uncanny X-Force[20][21] and a Captain America volume that featured the storyline where Falcon took over the mantle of Captain America, which was adapted for Avengers: Endgame and Falcon and the Winter Soldier.
Remender served as a writer on the Electronic Arts video game Dead Space, and was the lead writer for Epic Games' Bulletstorm, released on February 22, 2011.[22] In 2013, he returned to Image, producing a slate of creator-owned titles such as Black Science with Matteo Scalera, Deadly Class with Wes Craig, Low with Greg Tocchini, Tokyo Ghost with Sean Gordon Murphy, Seven to Eternity with Jerome Opeña and Death or Glory with Bengal. In 2017, Remender launched his own imprint at Image, titled Giant Generator, as well as a production company of the same name.[23]
In addition to his work in comics and video games, Remender served as the showrunner on the Sony Pictures Television adaptation of his series Deadly Class which aired on Syfy, but was canceled after one season.
In 2019, The Last Days of American Crime was adapted into a feature film for Netflix. It is one of the rare movies to receive a 0% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
In September 2023, it was announced that Remender, though his Giant Generator production company, had signed a three-year exclusivity deal with Image Comics.[24] In October 2023, it was announced that Giant Generator had signed exclusivity deals with 12 high profile artists including Daniel Acuña, André Lima Araújo, Paul Azaceta, Bengal, Roland Boschi, Max Fiumara, Mike Hawthorne, J. G. Jones, Francesco Mobili, Brett Parson, and Yanick Paquette. It was also announced that the imprint would be working on 3 new titles set to release in 2024 including Grommets by Remender, Brian Posehn, and Brett Parson, Napalm Lullaby by Rick Remender and Bengal, and Dust to Dust by JG Jones and Phil Bram.[25]
In November 2023, the first issue of Holy Roller, a comic written by Remeder, Joe Trohman, Andy Samberg, and illustrated by Roland Boschi, was released and published by Image Comics. Holy Roller about a pro bowler who is forced to quit his dream job and return to his hometown, which he soon discovers has been overrun by Neo-Nazis, leading him to become a trick bowling ball-wielding Jewish superhero.[26][27]
Personal life
[edit]Remender resides in Los Angeles[28] with his wife and two children.[29]
