1Juan Jose Ryp is a comic book artist from Spain. In North America, he is known for drawing scenes of extreme violence and destruction with equally extreme levels of stomach-churning detail, most notoriously on his Creator/AvatarPress projects such as ''ComicBook/BlackSummer'', ''ComicBook/{{Wolfskin}}'', and ''ComicBook/NoHero'' with Creator/WarrenEllis. Suffice to say, whatever disturbing thing Ellis can ''write'', Ryp can ''draw''.

3He has also done some freelancing for American comics, most notably on ''Comicbook/MoonKnight'', ''ComicBook/BirdsOfPrey'', Charlie Huston's ''ComicBook/{{Wolverine}}'' series ''The Best There Is'', and on Valiant's ''Ninjak''. He also contributed covers and some interior art to the Image miniseries ''Nancy In Hell''.

5Trademarks of Ryp's art include an astounding level of detail, explicit ultraviolence, a complete absence of discretion shots, and leggy women with absolutely ''enormous'' lips. As a general rule, if you have a weak stomach and you see Ryp's name on a cover, you probably do not want to read that comic book.

7!! Tropes present in Ryp's work:
8* {{Gorn}}: Even Ryp's work that's friendlier to general audiences, like the issue of ''Moon Knight'' he drew, doesn't flinch at portraying gruesome details. Nobody gets out of a Ryp fight scene peacefully unconscious and unmarked on the floor.
