Rupert Bottenberg (19 July 1971, Wolfville, Nova Scotia) is an illustrator, comic artist and writer.

Bottenberg grew up in Montreal. After graduation, and many freelance jobs, he established "Comix Jams, public events centered around collaborative, improvised comic art," a concept that was picked up by many other North American cities.[1] His style of drawing has been called "clean-line" and full of "technical precision."[2]

Bottenberg is currently the co-director of the En Masse collaborative art initiative, and co-creator, with writer Claude Lalumière, of the cryptomythological multimedia project Lost Myths. In 2012, Éditions TRIP released Bottenberg’s first solo book, Traumstadtdenken, a collection of artworks, graphic literature and comics.
