Mark Beyer

Mark Beyer (born 1950) is a comic artist known for his bleak story lines, often featuring death, disfigurement, depression, and humiliation, which contrast with his childlike, geometric drawing style. Most of his stories are about the adventures of a co-dependent yet resentful couple named Amy and Jordan.

His work was prominently featured in RAW Magazine; in fact, he was the only artist aside from founder Art Spiegelman to be published in every issue during its run. He also has been published in New York Press and New Musical Express. Beyer also had a recurring animated short series on MTV's Liquid Television, and a 1995 movie by Greg Araki, Doom Generation, was loosely based on the Amy and Jordan strips.
