Christian Lichtner
Background
Christian was a well-known comic book artist for a decade before he entered the gaming industry. He is best known in the comic world as co-founder of Liquid!, a revolutionary comic book coloring/art studio. Christian moved into the gaming industry in the late 00s, working on some undisclosed projects before joining Blizzard in early 2009. He was first revealed as the new D3 Art Director at Blzzcon 2009, where he spoke on a Diablo 3 panel and participated in a number of media interviews.
His Art and Websites
Unlikely virtually everyone else working on the D3 team, Christian's work was fairly well-known before he joined the D3 Team. A great deal of his work can be seen on his various home pages, as well as countless published works. He subjected himself to a fair number of interviews in his comic days, that that public presence and outgoing nature came to an end once he joined Blizzard, per company policy.
