Periscope Studio is a Portland, Oregon-based illustration studio, founded in 2002[1] as Mercury Studio. Members of the studio work both individually and as collaborators on a number of high-profile mainstream and independent comic books. These include Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Spider-Man, The Fantastic Four, World's Finest, Swamp Thing, and Fables.
