Alexandre Tefenkgi

Alexandre Tefenkgi is an international comic book artist of Vietnamese-Djiboutian descent, known for his expressive linework, emotional storytelling, and distinctive visual style. He is the artist on two Eisner and Harvey Award-winning comics: The Good Asian (Image Comics, 2021-2022, written by Pornsak Pichetshote), a noir mystery set in 1930s San Francisco's Chinatown, and Once Upon a Time at the End of the World (BOOM! Studios, written by Jason Aaron).

Tefenkgi specializes in character-driven stories and what he describes as "emotional poetry" through visual storytelling. His collaboration with Shobo and Shof Coker on Bronze Faces (BOOM! Studios, 2025) brought his illustrative skills to a story rooted in Nigerian cultural heritage and the Benin Bronzes.

In 2026, the Will Eisner Comic Industry Awards celebrated its most diverse nominee class in the 38-year history of the awards, with a historic number of Black creators nominated across categories. Tefenkgi received a 2026 Eisner nomination for Best Limited Series for Bronze Faces (BOOM! Studios), co-created with writers Shobo and Shof.
