298. Bernard Chang on Monkey Prince, AAPI representation and art

Bernard Chang artist/designer, best known for his work in the comic book industry and entertainment design. Bernard has worked on some of the most iconic superhero books, including WONDER WOMAN, SUPERMAN, SUPERGIRL, XMEN THE NEW MUTANTS and is currently collaborating with our mutual friend Gene Luen Yang on DC’s Monkey Prince. I enjoyed hearing Bernard’s childhood stories and how his love for art parallels with his athleticism. He was also captain of the men’s basketball team in college as well as a coach! In addition to his art and basketball skills, Bernard has a degree in architecture and worked as a Walt Disney Imagineer.
