Skottie Young es un dibujante, escritor e ilustrador estadounidense conocido por su estilo caricaturesco, expresivo y profundamente reconocible dentro del cómic contemporáneo. Comenzó trabajando para Marvel Comics en títulos como New X-Men, junto a Craig Kyle y Christopher Yost, etapa que ayudó a redefinir a varios personajes jóvenes mutantes tras los eventos de House of M. También participó en series como Human Torch, Spider-Man: Legend of the Spider-Clan y Rocket Raccoon, además de realizar las populares portadas “baby variant” que terminaron convirtiéndose en una marca registrada de la editorial.

Fuera del universo superheroico, Young consolidó una identidad propia con obras como I Hate Fairyland, mezcla salvaje de fantasía, humor negro y caos visual, además de sus adaptaciones ilustradas de las novelas de Oz junto a Eric Shanower. Su trabajo destaca por combinar estética infantil con violencia caricaturesca y una narrativa frenética que parece salida de una caricatura alimentada con azúcar industrial. En 2013 recibió el Inkwell Award por su contribución artística al cómic estadounidense, reconocimiento que confirmó el impacto de un autor capaz de convertir ternura y destrucción en la misma viñeta sin despeinarse.
