COLLEEN DORAN CHECKLIST

Because Colleen has such an extensive credit list, and her work spans more than two decades, it is almost impossible to compile a complete index, since even she does not keep a list of all of her work. Individual trading cards and single illustrations were especially hard to track.

Most of this list covers her illustrations, though some stories are works she wrote as well.

There are many books that discuss Colleen's work, or mention her place in pop culture history, such as The101 Best Graphic Novels by Steve Weiner, Flee Puny Humans! The Comic Book Heaven Collection by Scott Saavedra, Image Comics: The Road to Independence by George Khoury, and Comic Book Culture: Fanboys and True Believers (Studies in Popular Culture) by Matthew J. Pustz. We haven't had a chance to go over all of them, so we've just listed a few here. A search on major bookseller sites like http://www.amazon.com will help you get a better idea of the content of these books.

If you find anything we may have missed that might be of interest, please do contact us so we can add it to the list!

Thanks to comics historian Allan Harvey for all of his hard work!
