Marat grew up in Los Angeles CA, where he first fell in love
with comics working as a store clerk at the Golden Apple
comic book store. At 13 while at a local comic book
convention he met another aspiring young artist Rob Liefeld
(16 at the time) the two struck up a friendship and kept in
touch. Years later as Rob Liefeld was working on Marvel
Comic's New Mutants he hired on a fresh out of high school
Marat as his assistant. It didn't take long before Rob realized
Marat was ready to step up and start penciling his own
book…thus he offered Marat Brigade. Marat has had a long
and successful career in both comic books and freelance
graphic design. Marat currently resides in Orange County,
California where he runs his concept development company
12 At Midnight LLC ( www.12atmidnight.com) and freelances
as a comic book illustrator.
