Career

After starting his illustration career in commercial art, Golden entered the comics industry in late 1977, working on such

Vigilante. Despite his considerable amount of work in comics, Golden has stated that he still finds advertising and commercial design work to be more fulfilling than comics, because "it's something different each time."[17]

Golden's art style later inspired a number of later comics creators, including Arthur Adams.[3][4] Golden's work was also appropriated by Glenn Danzig as a logo for his bands Samhain and Danzig.[18] He is managed by Renée Witterstaetter (a former comics colorist, writer, and editor) of Eva Ink Publishing.[19]

In a 1997 interview with Wizard magazine, Golden explained that he had not attended a comics convention since 1979, because he is uncomfortable with the cult of personality treatment of comics creators.[17] By the 2000s, however, he had been known to make appearances at conventions.[20][21]
