Ed Brubaker (Bethesda, Maryland, 1966) is an American screenwriter and graphic novelist, known for revitalizing the noir genre comic and for his mature approach to superhero stories. He began his career with the semi-autobiographical series Lowlife and gained notoriety at DC Comics with titles such as Batman, Catwoman, and Gotham Central. At Marvel, his stint on Captain America (2004–2012) is especially famous for introducing the Winter Soldier, redefining the character of Bucky Barnes.

His collaboration with artist Sean Phillips has resulted in notable works such as Criminal (2006–present), Fatale (2012–2014), The Fade Out (2014–2016), and the Reckless series of graphic novels (2020–present). These works, published by Image Comics, have been acclaimed for their intense narrative and noir style. Brubaker has been awarded multiple Eisner and Harvey Awards, including Best Writer and Best New Series for Criminal. Additionally, he has ventured into television as co-writer of the series Too Old to Die Young (2019), directed by Nicolas Winding Refn.
