About Me
Hi! My name is Rebecca Good (née McConnell). I am a freelance illustrator and Pulitzer Prize winning comic book colorist based in Milwaukee, WI. I'm best known for my color work on The Old Guard: Tales Through Time (Image), "How I Escaped A Chinese Internment Camp (Insider.com), and the Let Her Be Evil Anthology. In my career I've worked with clients across many fields, notably, HarperCollins, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, Image Comics and Insider.com. I also like to create silly comics, and educational comics with a kid-friendly feel. When I'm not drawing or coloring, I enjoy petting my cat Vivian, and spending time watching cartoons with my husband Tom.
