Dave Cockrum

Welcome to davecockrum.com. You may know Dave Cockrum as the fan favorite artist who helped revive The Legion of Super-Heroes and The X-Men in the 1970s. I'm Dave's son, Ivan Cockrum. I put this page together to collect some of my dad's better known work. In addition to drawing The X-Men for Marvel, he was also their primary cover artist for several years, and this page collects many of his Marvel Comics covers (with the caveat that I believe he only inked some of these). At one time or another, he touched almost every Marvel character that has appeared in the Marvel Cinematic Universe 40 years later.
