Chris Eliopoulos is a American cartoonist and letterer of comic books, not to be confused with Chicago-based cartoonist and Yo Gabba Gabba! segment director Chris "Elio House" Eliopoulos.
Eliopoulos is known as a prolific letterer, in particular for hand-lettering the first 100 issues of the ongoing Savage Dragon series, even after much of the comic book industry (including Eliopoulos himself, on other titles) had come to rely on computer-generated fonts for dialogue; this was done at Savage Dragon creator Erik Larsen's request; Larsen preferring the individual look of hand-lettered dialogue.
