Frank Cho is a Korean-American self taught comic book artist, writer and illustrator, known for his series Liberty Meadows, as well as for books such as Shanna the She-Devil, New Avengers, Mighty Avengers, New Ultimates, and Hulk for Marvel Comics, and Jungle Girl for Dynamite Entertainment. He was born December 2, 1971 in Seoul, South Korea. He moved to the United States at the age of six, along with his brothers and parents in search of better economic opportunities, and was raised in Beltsville, Maryland. When he was ten, his older brother brought some comic books home, and he started copying the art. When a friend saw that he was able to reproduce the artwork without tracing them, he urged Frank Cho to illustrate comics for a living. From that point on, with the exception of some basic art classes, he refined his abilities by himself without any formal training, finding influence in Depression era comics as Prince Valiant and Li'l Abner, and in the work of artists such as Norman Rockwell, N.C. Wyeth, Andrew Loomis, Al Williamson and Frank Frazetta. After graduating from High Point High School in 1990 he attended Prince George's Community College where he wrote and drew a cartoon strip called in the weekly Prince George's Community College newspaper where he was also comics editor. He was offered a scholarship to attend the Maryland Institute College of Art in Baltimore, which he declined because he disliked the school's academic focus. His parents were not particularly supportive of his interest in art, so he transferred to the University of Maryland School of Nursing, and Frank Cho graduated with a B.S. in Nursing in 1996

Frank Cho, is noted for his figure drawing, precise lines, and depiction of well-endowed women which can be traced back to his first professional assignment doing short stories for Penthouse Comix in his last year of college. After graduation, Frank Cho adapted elements of this work for use in a professionally syndicated strip, titled Liberty Meadows. He signed a fifteen-year contract with Creators Syndicate, which he later realized was unusually long and, perhaps jokingly, blamed on having a bad lawyer. After five years of doing Liberty Meadows, Cho grew weary of the arguments with his editor over the censorship of the strip, as well as the pressure of the daily deadlines, and pulled the strip from syndication in December 2001, though he continued to print it uncensored in book form. During the course of his work on Liberty Meadows, he also did occasional cover work or anthology work for other publishers. These included Ultimate Spider-Man Super Special for Marvel Comics in 2000, The Savage Dragon and The Amazing Spider-Man in 2002, Hellboy: Weird Tales #6 in 2003 and Invincible in 2004. he then began doing full interior work on other Spider-Man books for Marvel, including issues #5 and 8 of Marvel Knights Spider-Man in 2004 and 2005, respectively, and The Astonishing Spider-Man #123, also in 2005.

Frank Cho was approached by Marvel Comics' then senior editor Axel Alonso, who had been impressed by Liberty Meadows, about revamping the third string character Shanna the She-Devil, a scantily clad jungle lady who first appeared in the early 1970's, as a college-educated defender of wildlife and opponent of firearms. Cho, seeing possibilities, recast Shanna in a seven-issue, 2005 miniseries as an Amazonian naïf, the product of a Nazi experiment with the power to kill dinosaurs with her bare hands but an unpredictable lack of morality. The miniseries was originally meant to feature uncensored nude drawings of the heroine, but Marvel later decided against this, and had Cho censor his already completed pages for the first five issues. However, Cho has indicated on his website that Marvel plans to release a hardcover collection under its MAX imprint which will contain the uncensored artwork. The book became a sleeper hit for Marvel, and to Cho's subsequent projects for the publisher. Cho then penciled issues 14 and 15 of Marvel's New Avengers in 2006, and illustrated the first six issues of Marvel Comics' 2007 relaunch of Mighty Avengers with writer Brian Bendis. He is the plotter and cover artist of Dynamite Entertainment's Jungle Girl. Cho drew issues 7–9 of Hulk, which were published in 2009. In 2010–2011, Cho illustrated writer Jeph Loeb's run on New Ultimates for Marvel Comics. In 2011 he worked on the miniseries X-Men: Schism with writer Jason Aaron. In January 2013, as an expansion of the Marvel NOW! initiative, Marvel premiered Savage Wolverine, a series written and illustrated by Cho that stars both Wolverine and co-stars Shanna the She-Devil and Amadeus.  The "Lost World"–type story that comprises the first five issues is intended to evoke a "classic adventure feel", and is inspired by the Indiana Jones films and the pulp horror of H.P. Lovecraft. This year he was one of a number of A-list comic book artists, commissioned by DC Comics to create 24 variant covers for the first year of their relaunched twice-monthly comic books. Frank Cho is currently credited with some or all of the artwork in 417 separate Comic Book issues.
