Arthur "Art" Adams, born in 1963 in Holyoke, Massachusetts, is an American writer and artist noted for his work on comic books.

A self-taught artist, Adams wanted to work in comics since his childhood. He became a fan favorite when, starting at the age of 19, he penciled the critically-acclaimed Longshot miniseries, written by Ann Nocenti and published in 1985 by Marvel Comics. Adams' highly distinctive and detailed artwork gained him considerable popularity, and he found it easy to find further work in the field. However, the labor-intensive nature of producing said artwork has the downside of Adams being fairly slow to provide on the short deadlines often found in the comics industry, which has contributed to him working on miniseries, specials, and annuals, but never working as the illustrator of a regular title for an extended period of time. Adams' distinctive style has often been named as a considerable influence among a newer generation of popular comic book artists. Adams was also one of the founders of the short-lived Legend imprint for Dark Horse Comics.

The consistently popular Adams has worked on many notable series, including various X-Men titles, Fantastic Four, The Authority, Tom Strong, Gen¹³, as well as numerous annuals. He is also known for Art Adams' Creature Features, a collection of previously published stories that paid tribute to various B-movie monsters, published by Dark Horse Comics. Some of the stories had been originally published in black and white, but they were colored for the collection. Along with writer Steve Moore, Adams is the co-creator of Jonni Future, a popular character in Tom Strong's Terrific Tales.
