Michael Docherty (September 11, 1955 – January 19, 2016) was a Scottish comic book and animation artist living in California. He is best known for his work on Marvel Comic's 1980s and 1990s Conan comics. Since the mid-1990s he began on drawing concept designs and storyboards for animation, live-action TV and movie projects, but mainly focusing on animation. For over a decade, Docherty was one of the most prolific artists in the Conan Universe, with credits penciling 'Conan the Barbarian', 'Conan the King' and 'Savage Sword of Conan'. He also illustrated the Conan graphic novels 'The Horn of Azoth' and 'The Ravagers Out of Time'. After penciling three issues of 'Conan the Savage' in 1996, Docherty left Marvel for animation, where he worked as a storyboard artist on 'The Incredible Hulk', 'Godzilla: The Series' and 'Captain Simian & The Space Monkeys'.
