Chuck Austen is an American writer and artist of comic books.
Austen's career stretches back to the 1980s, when he briefly illustrated Alan Moore's superhero series Miracleman under the name "Chuck Beckham".
He has created several pornographic comics, including Strips, WorldWatch and Hardball, and is often criticized by comic book fans for his unfavorable - not to say misogynistic - portrayal of well-established female characters such as Lana Lang.
In the 2000s he started working regularly for Marvel Comics, writing and illustrating U.S. War Machine, illustrating Elektra, and writing a number of series, including Uncanny X-Men, Captain America and The Avengers. He has also written various Superman stories for DC Comics.
