| 4 | Saladin Ahmed (born October 4, 1975) is an American writer of prose fiction, comic books, and poetry. |

| 6 | Ahmed first came to prominence as the author of the fantasy novel ''Throne of the Crescent Moon'', the first installment of the ''[[Literature/TheCrescentMoonKingdoms Crescent Moon Kingdoms]]'' series, which received a UsefulNotes/HugoAward nomination for Best Novel in 2013. |

| 8 | Off the success of his prose fiction, Ahmed later segued into writing comic books, most notably for Creator/{{Marvel}}. His first effort, ''ComicBook/BlackBolt'' (with Christian Ward), was a massive critical success, winning the [[Creator/WillEisner Eisner]] for Best New Series in 2018. |
| 9 | |
| 10 | He continued writing for Marvel with the ComicBook/{{Quicksilver}} limited series ''[[ComicBook/AvengersNoSurrender No Surrender]]'', the third volume of the ComicBook/XMen-adjacent ''ComicBook/{{Exiles}}'', and ''ComicBook/MilesMoralesSpiderMan2018''. During this time, he also debuted his first-ever creator-owned title, ''Abbott'', with Creator/BoomStudios. |

| 12 | Ahmed's Muslim background informs much of his work, particularly in the way he averts tropes of {{Medieval European fantasy}} in the ''Crescent Moon Kingdoms''. He's also one of the most visible Muslim writers in American comics, alongside Creator/GWillowWilson, who he replaced as the writer of [[ComicBook/KamalaKhan Ms. Marvel]] in 2019. |
