Vic Carrabotta is an American comic-book artist and advertising art director whose career stretches to the early 1950s. His comic book art includes much work for Marvel Comics‘ 1950s forerunner, Atlas Comics.
Drawing primarily for horror comics, Carrabotta did work for early issues of such Atlas anthologies as Adventures into Terror, Journey into Mystery (including issue #1), and Strange Tales prior to the imposition of the industry’s self-censorship Comics Code. He went on to do science-fiction/fantasy suspense stories for titles including Journey into Unknown Worlds, Marvel Tales, Mystic, Uncanny Tales, and others.[4] Carrabotta was one of the few Atlas artists to regularly sign his work, aiding in compiling his bibliography.
Carrabotta also did a limited amount of work in the 1950s for Youthful Comics (Chilling Tales, Atomic Attack!), Fiction House (Planet Comics), and Lev Gleason Publications (The Amazing Adventures of Buster Crabbe, Black Diamond Western, fillers in Crime Does Not Pay and that company’s Daredevil).[4] Carrabotta’s last work before leaving comics in the wake of an industry downturn was a story in Gunsmoke Western #49 (Nov. 1958), though Carrobotta did return for a single Marvel comic during the period fans and historians call the Silver Age of comic books: the 17-page story “The Challenge of Cole Younger” in Two-Gun Kid #86 (March 1967), written by Gary Friedrich.[4]

Marvel reprinted several Carrabotta stories in the 1970s and one additional in the reprint-anthology miniseries Curse of the Weird #3 (Feb. 1994).
Upon leaving comics after a 1950s Atlas downturn, Carrabotta segued into advertising, opening his own studio and then becoming senior art director at the Alden Advertising Agency. Additionally, he briefly joined Mother Earth News Magazine before working as an art director at Reader’s Digest. From there he became an art director at the Atlanta office of the Manhattan advertising agencyBBDO, specializing in storyboards. After winning an award for a Delta Air Lines project, he began freelancing as a storyboard and conceptual artist for several agencies, including Grey Advertising, McCann-Erickson, and Young & Rubicam, for accounts including Advil, AT&T, Coca-Cola, Jell-O, and Kenner Toys.
