Ed Luce is an American cartoonist, best known for his indie comics series Wuvable Oaf.[1] The series focuses on Oaf Jadwiga, a bearish gay ex-wrestler looking for love.[2] Originally funded by a grant from Prism Comics, it was self-published in five standalone chapters[3] until being compiled in graphic novel form by Fantagraphics Books in 2015.[4]
He is a two-time Ignatz Award nominee for the series, garnering nominations in 2009 for Promising New Talent[5] and in 2015 for Outstanding Artist,[6] and is a shortlisted Lambda Literary Award nominee for LGBT Graphic Novel at the 28th Lambda Literary Awards.[7] A second volume titled Wuvable Oaf: Blood and Metal, focusing on Oaf's life prior to the story told in the original comics, is slated for publication in 2016.[8]
Luce lives with his husband Mark in San Francisco,[3] where he teaches at California College of the Arts.[9]
