- مايك ديانا (بالإنجليزية: Mike Diana) هو فنان قصص مصورة أمريكي، ولد في 1969 في نيويورك في الولايات المتحدة. (ar)
- Michael Christopher Diana (born 1969) is an American underground cartoonist. His work, which is largely self-published, deals with themes including sexuality, violence, and religion. He is the first person to receive a criminal conviction in the United States for artistic obscenity for his comic Boiled Angel. During his childhood and teen years, Diana took an interest in creating art that others found disturbing. Living in Florida as an adult, he began publishing his comics in zines, which he primarily distributed through the mail. His work came to the attention of the FBI during their investigation of serial killings in another Florida city, and they forwarded it to Diana's local police after ruling him out as a suspect. In 1992, after he sent copies of his work to an undercover police officer, Diana was charged under Florida law with obscenity. The jury found him guilty, and his sentence included supervised probation, during which any art or writings he produced were subject to unannounced, warrantless searches and seizure by the police. Two of the three counts of obscenity were upheld on appeal, and an appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court was denied. Meanwhile, Diana had moved to New York, which declined to extradite him to Florida, and he completed his probation there. (en)
