comic book artist, born Murwillumbah. A self taught artist, he began his comic book career with the sci-fi/ fantasy Oblagon (1992). When this ceased publication he recruited some mates and started the publishing house X-press Comics, which published Platinum (1993). It ceased publication after three issues, despite Wahl being awarded a Stanley for 'Best Adventure Strip’ in 1994, aged 21. Platinum also won 2 OzCon (Australian Comic Book Convention) Awards: one for favourite Australian cover (for Platinum #2 ) and another for Wahl as Favourite Australian artist.
Wahl continued to produce covers, pin-ups (one page mini-posters) and short stories for various comic publications. The cover of Bug & Stump (#4, 1995) won the 1995 OZCON Favourite Comic Cover Award. In the early 2000s he was working for Disney Studios, Sydney.
