Al PUCK COMIC PARTY parteciperà anche MARK BODE, firma importante della nuova scena underground e della street art, disegnatore delle Tartarughe Ninja e figlio del leggendario cartoonist Vaughn Bode.

Mark Bodé was born in Utica, New York, as was his father, the famous underground comix artist, Vaughn Bodé, who died in 1975. Mark started his professional comics career at the age of fifteen, coloring his father's strip 'Zooks, the First Lizard in Orbit' for Heavy Metal Magazine. He studied at the Art School in Oakland, California and at the School of Visual Arts in New York, as well as animation and etching at San Francisco State University. He is best known for his work on the comic series 'Cobalt-60' (originally created by his father) and his creation of 'Miami Mice'.
