Comic Creator Spotlight: Janeth Bazaldua

By John Freeman on 2 May 2026

Comic artist Janeth Bazaldua is seeking new professional challenges outside of her long-standing tenure at Marvel.

“What sets Janeth apart – beyond her stellar work on titles like The Amazing Spider-Man, X-Force, and her recent success in Marvel Zombies – is her exceptional dynamic energy and her ability to bring a modern, fresh look to any franchise,” enthuses agent Joaquin Garcia, of the Radebu agency. “She is a storyteller who understands the commercial pulse of the industry, always working in total synergy with the script to elevate the visual impact of the story.”

Bazaldua, who’s been gaining a strong following on Instagram, has been working for Marvel for several years, but before this, had been working in Mexican comics since the 1980s. Works include BloodRayne: Prime Cuts for Digital Webbing, Evil Dead 2: Cradle of the Damned for SG Productions; and titles such as Spider-Man, Loki, The Amazing Spider-man and Star Wars for Marvel.
