Luana Vecchio is an Italian comic book artist best known for her vibrant colors, manga influences and dream-like quality mixed with eroticism and horror.

She first broke into the comic book scene drawing a short story for the Millarworld Annual 2017 published by Image Comics. She followed it up with Confidential Comics drawing the four part miniseries A Knight in Kansas City.

In 2020, she began to establish herself in the industry with work on Snow White Zombie Apocalypse and on the spin off Blood Covered King for Scout Comics. Simultaneously, she self-published her first solo project LOVESICK on Comixology Submit. Years later, this would go on to change her career.

Meanwhile in 2021, she began a series of collaborations with writer Wyatt Kennedy. It began with the short story Something for your M.I.N.D. which was featured in Heavy Metal. The following year, Vecchio published her first creator-owned comic with Kennedy- BOLERO, a five issue series at Image Comics. They again collaborated at Image with Gospel For a New Century, which was a series of shorts featured in the IMAGE! 30th Anniversary Anthology.

In October 2022 she returned to LOVESICK, this time bringing it to print with another collaboration at Image Comics. Originally concieved as a three issue short, the series was expanded to seven after becoming a massive cult hit. The same year, Luana recieved The 2022 Russ Manning Promising Newcomer Award at San Diego Comic-Con. This was the perfect way to cap off a tremendous rise to comic stardom.

After concluding the first series of Lovesick, Luana has worked for DC Comics on Harley Quinn : Black+White+Redder and a guest stint on Poison Ivy.

She is currently working on covers for most American publishers including Archie Comics, Oni Press, Sumerian Comics, Image Comics, Skybound, Vault Comics and Titan. Her next creator owned project will also be written and drawn by Luana, with release details announced soon!
