Career
After starting his illustration career in commercial art, Golden broke into comics in late 1977, working on such DC Comics titles as Mister Miracle and Batman Family. In 1978, he made a splash with his work on Marvel's Micronauts. He drew a number of Marvel series throughout the 1970s and 1980s, including Doctor Strange, She-Hulk, the Howard the Duck black-and-white comics magazine, and The 'Nam. He drew covers for the licensed series G.I. Joe, ROM, and the lesser-known U.S. 1, Nomad, and The Saga of Crystar. Golden also penciled parts of the Marvel No-Prize Book . In the 2000s, he drew covers for DC Comics' Nightwing, Superman: The Man of Steel, and Vigilante.
Golden's art style later inspired a number of later comics creators, including Arthur Adams. Golden's work was also appropriated by Glenn Danzig as a logo for his bands Samhain and Danzig. Golden is an elusive figure, rarely given to interviews or revelations about his background and personal life. He is currently managed by Renee Witterstaetter (a former comics colorist, writer, and editor) of Eva Ink Publishing.

“Clearly, society has a tremendous stake in insisting on a woman’s natural fitness for the career of mother: the alternatives are all too expensive.”

“The 19-year-old Diana ... decided to make her career that of wife. Today that can be a very, very iffy line of work.... And what sometimes happens to the women who pursue it is the best argument imaginable for teaching girls that they should always be able to take care of themselves.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
