57 years old (Born on May 19, 1967)
Happy Birthday, Steve Lieber! Another year older and still sketching circles around the rest of us mere mortals. Your work on "Hawkman" soared higher than Hawkman's wingspan, and your gritty noir style in "Detective Comics" made Gotham feel darker—and somehow cooler—than ever before.Clearly influenced by legends like Milton Caniff, Alex Toth, Alex Raymond, and Howard Chaykin—you've managed to blend their classic charm with a modern twist that's uniquely yours. Here's hoping this birthday brings you fewer deadlines (yeah right!), more cake-fueled inspiration sessions, and plenty of ink-stained fingers!
Keep drawing greatness—we'll keep reading it!
