Biography edit

Bogdanovic was born in Basel, Switzerland (where he attended School of Arts) and moved to Berlin, Germany with his family.[1] He started drawing his own Superman and Spider-Man stories at the age of 12. His first paid work was drawings for a piercing shop. Viktor did a few indie books before he got the chance to work on his first mini-series for Image Comics, which was called Reality Check. His career really took off after his Batman: Arkham Knight run written by Peter Tomasi. Bogdanovic co-created New Super-Man with Gene Luen Yang,[2] and followed that with short stints on Superman with Dan Jurgens and Terrifics with Jeff Lemire.[3]

In 2020, he collaborated with Benjamin Percy on a story for Wolverine #1,[4] which topped the sales charts in February,[5] and was the regular artist on volume 7 before going back to DC.

His style was influenced by Erik Larsen, Greg Capullo and others.[6]

Bogdanovic is of Serbian descent and studied at The Faculty of Philology at the University of Belgrade.[7]
