For several years, she was hired by ad agencies Kornhauser and Calene and Kidvertisers to work on a number of launches and campaigns such as Arm & Hammer, Playschool, and Nickelodeon, to name a few.
However, loving comic books and cartooning the most, she once again found herself working for Marvel in their Barbie Line {while there, many of Amanda's covers were made into designs for the line of Barbie toys}, their Disney line, and especially the Gargoyles line. At the same time she was illustrating Soul Searchers & Co. for ClayPool Comics. Other Marvel Projects Came along, such as Excalibur for the X-Men line and Suburban Jersey Ninja

Vampirella, Amanda worked with the top writers in the field, Grant Morrison, Mark Millar, and Warren Ellis.
Continuing to expand her horizons, Amanda illustrated the best selling event comic "PainKiller Jane VS. The Darkness" and went on to work on PainKiller Jane
0 [The Origin Book] and write and illustrate a story for Kid Death and Fluffy.
