Kevin

Brooks Eastman (born

May 30, 1962) is an American comic book artist and writer best known for

co-creating Teenage Mutant Ninja

Turtles with Peter Laird. Eastman is also the editor and publisher of

the magazine Heavy Metal. Eastman

was born in Portland, Maine. He

attended Westbrook High School in Westbrook, Maine, with comic book illustrator Steve Lavigne. Kevin was "raised in a Christian family", and grew up a comic book

fan, with Jack Kirby as his

idol and Kamandi as his favorite title of his. In

1983 he worked in a restaurant while he searched for publishers for his comics.

He met a waitress who was attending the University

of Massachusetts Amherst and followed her to Northampton, Massachusetts. While

searching for a local underground newspaper to publish his work, he began a

professional relationship with Peter Laird, who worked at nearby Dover, New Hampshire, and

the two collaborated for a short time on various comics projects. In

May 1984, Eastman and Laird self-published the first black & white issue

of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. The forty-page oversized comic had

an initial print run of 3,275 copies and was largely funded by a US$1000 loan

from Eastman's uncle Quentin. It was published by the duo's Mirage Studios, a name chosen because, as Eastman says,

"there wasn't an actual studio, only kitchen tables and couches with lap

boards." By September 1985, their first issue had received three

additional printings. Laird's newspaper experience led to the two creating a

four-page press kit, which included a story outline and artwork.

They sent the press kit to 180 television and radio stations as well as to

the Associated Press and United Press International.

This led to widespread press coverage of both the Teenage Mutant Ninja

Turtles and Mirage Studios itself, creating a demand for the comic. With

their second issue, Eastman and Laird's Turtles comic began a

quick rise to success, bringing in advance orders of 15,000 copies, five times

the initial print run of the first issue. This earned Eastman and Laird a

profit of $2,000 each and allowed them to become full-time comic book saw the duo invited to their

first comics convention at

the tenth annual Atlanta Fantasy Fair in

1984, where they mingled with notable comic creators like Larry Niven, Forrest J Ackerman and Fred Hembeck. Their fifth issue of Teenage

Mutant Ninja Turtles was released in November 1985, and was downsized

to the more common American comics-format and size. The previous four issues

were also reprinted in this size and format with new colored covers. Also in

1985, Solson Publications released How

to Draw Eastman and Laird's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Solson would

follow this up with the six-issue Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

Authorized Martial Arts Training Manual as well as one issue of Teenage

Mutant Ninja Turtles Teach Karate volume in 1987.
