Artist Profile

A career in context

Credited professionally as Pedi and Pedram Shohadai, the artist is represented in CoverLineage through published Spider-Man imagery centered on Ben Reilly’s Scarlet Spider. Publicly available career documentation remains limited, so this profile begins with the work itself.

Those covers occupy an important early point in the lineage: they show the composition being reused within Spider-Man publishing before homage variants became the expansive collector category they are today. Additional verified biographical information is welcomed by the archive.

CoverLineage noteShohadai’s place in the catalog is historically useful. The image is close enough to the source to announce its reference immediately, while the changed costume shows how pose alone can carry lineage.
