Mike Fichera - Inspired by the death of great-grandfather Cacciatore (“the Hunter”), killed by a spider bite on a Sicilian farm, Mike began a lifelong interest in the wall-crawler. Like Peter Parker, he grew up in Queens, NY playing with microscopes, computers, and science kits, hoping to create web-fluid and gain spider powers. His sister provided his first comic: Spidey Super Stories #12. Faithfully scrapbooking the newspaper dailies for many years, he joined Spiderfan.org when the web was young becoming a staff writer. After helping write and organize the Spider-Man Encyclopedia, Mike’s first official writing credits began with the Spider-Man 2005 Handbook and subsequently in the 2006 A-to-Z series.
Since then, Mike has contributed to the A-to-Z 2007 Updates, the “Legacy” Handbooks for the 1960s, 70s, 80s, and 90s, various spotlight Handbooks for Iron Man, Hulk, and X-Men, as well as the Marvel Atlas. In 2007, he led the Spider-Man: Back in Black Handbook, and this year, he’s led the 2008 Spider-Man Yearbook coming out on his birthday, Christmas Eve, December 24. The Yearbook is half “Saga” - which will be a recap of 2008’s Spider-stories, and half Handbook focusing on the new characters to debut this year, as well as some old ones who popped up (including the Squid and Scorpia). He’s currently working on the A-to-Z Permiere Hardcovers, which repackage all the various Handbooks from 2004 to the present, with updates and polishing of the graphics.
In addition to image refurbishment, his artwork has been featured in a few Handbooks including the Spider-Slayers, and a biology text-book cross-section of Spider-Man’s arm back when he had organic webbing.
His expertise has been featured on AM Atlanta with Tom Hughes and the syndicated Mitch Albom Show.
