Elementals
#15 (July 1987) from
Comico: The Comic Company
.
[1]
Miehm cites various artists as influences but notes that: "I also think any creative person is influenced by everything around them --- so aside from artists whose work I admire, life itself imprints upon the psyche of the artist".
[2]
After drawing
The American
for
Dark Horse Comics
, Miehm worked for
DC Comics
from approximately 1988 to 1993, drawing for numerous titles including
The Flash
,
Justice Society
,
Green Arrow
, and
Suicide Squad
.
[3]
He was both artist and plotter on
Impact Comics
'
Legend of the Shield
with dialogue by
Mark Waid
.
[4]
Miehm has also worked on several
Marvel Comics
characters (Quasar, Namor: The Sub-Mariner and others) and
The Avengers
. He has drawn for television-related titles such as Disney's
Gargoyles
and Saban Entertainment's
Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers
.

In 1999, Miehm began packaging the long-running "Scouts in Action" feature ? writing, drawing, ink, color, typography, logo designs ? as well as a variety of assignments for
Boys' Life
(now Scout Life) magazine.
[2]
The feature was expanded to a second page ? "More S.I.A" ? with the September 2007 issue, with Miehm providing all art and writing for this page as well. The "Scouts in Action" franchise was expanded yet again ? with Miehm at the helm on all creative duties ? when "Scouters In Action" made its debut in the January?February 2015 issue of
Scouting
magazine, a sister publication to
Boys’ Life
. This feature is devoted to recounting true stories of adult Scout leaders involved in acts of heroism similar to those seen in "Scouts in Action" and "More S.I.A.".
Miehm's other freelance work includes assignments in the advertising and commercial illustration fields.
