KANG JING (KJ)
COMIC | COVER | SKETCH CARD ARTIST
Kang Jing (KJ) is a Singapore-based comic artist known for his dynamic cover illustrations and sketch card work across major franchises. Since launching his comics career in 2019, KJ has built an impressive portfolio spanning Marvel, Star Wars, Power Rangers and Archie Comics, amongst many others. Working primarily in traditional media, he brings characters to life with bold pencil strokes and expressive ink work.
KJ first gained recognition through his original comic series The World My Arena and ZHAO, both successfully funded on Kickstarter and featured in local media outlets such as justsaying.ASIA and CNA Lifestyle. These projects were later adapted into animated videos by VividThree Productions. He also illustrated the comic adaptation of CPT Ho Weng Toh—Singapore’s last World War II Flying Tiger—which was serialized in a local newspaper.
In 2022, KJ was appointed ambassador artist for Singapore’s inaugural Comic Embassy. His international breakthrough came in 2024 with his U.S. cover art debut for Mighty Morphin Power Rangers #122 (BOOM! Studios), released exclusively for Singapore Comic Con. Subsequently in 2025, he got the opportunity to collaborate with Power Rangers cast members Catherine Sutherland, Nakia Burrise, and Brennan Mejia for exclusive covers on Power Rangers Prime #5 and #7 (BOOM! Studios).
Later that year, KJ made his debut with Archie Comics, creating an exclusive variant cover celebrating Singapore’s 60th National Day. The release was widely covered by Singapore mainstream media, further cementing his reputation as a homegrown artist making an international impact.
Concurrently, KJ entered the sketch card scene in 2024 starting with the Star Wars Chrome series for Topps and has since illustrated over 400 officially licensed cards. His distinctive art style and creative flair earned him a place in the Marvel sketch card universe in 2025.
