Heiner Bade (also erroneously credited as Heiner Baade and Helmer Bade) is a German comics creator born in Hamburg, Germany, in 1949[1].
Biography
At the age of 17 Bade became a student at the Hamburg college of fine arts. After three and a half years of studies, that included anatomy and graphic arts, his first employment was to draw advertising. The next couple of years he had various odd jobs, including working as a sketch artist for the police.[2].
In the 1970's, Bade came to Sweden and worked as an illustrator and comics artist. In 1973 he made the comic Robert Starke for the Swedish magazine Veckans Brott. The next year he submitted a comic to the magazine Serie-Magasinet for its consideration and in that way he gained the notice of the editors of Fantomen. In 1975 he began to draw "The Phantom" for the Swedish Fantomen comic book, starting with "Grigor's Revenge". In 2015 he celebrated 40 years as an active Phantom artist.[3].
His artistic style has been described as expressive reminiscent of Jaime Vallvé and his trademark is making secondary characters recognizable and conveying their thoughts and feelings.[4].
