Amy Reeder was first discovered through the fourth of
Tokyopop's
Rising Stars of Manga competitions and later wrote and illustrated the
OEL manga ''
Fool's Gold''. Reeder became the lead artist on the
Madame Xanadu series from
DC Comics'
Vertigo imprint, with writer
Matt Wagner. In a 2007 interview, she credited editor
Brandon Montclare with helping her get her start in the comics industry. In 2010, DC announced that she would take over alternate art duties for the
Batwoman series with
J. H. Williams III, in addition to providing variant covers to that title and
Supergirl, the latter of which she began with issue 55. She then left the
Batwoman book due to "creative differences" in the middle of the next
story arc. Reeder moved to
Image Comics and created
Rocket Girl with writer Brandon Montclare. In 2015, she and Montclare began co-writing
Moon Girl And Devil Dinosaur for
Marvel Comics. She wrote and drew a six-issue
