Dean Trippe (born 1980) is a United States-based comic book artist and illustrator. Trippe graduated from the Savannah College of Art and Design with a B.F.A. in Sequential Art in 2003.

Trippe's early published work includes contributions to several comic anthologies, including You Ain't No Dancer and the 2005 FLUKE Anthology, as well as coloring for various publishers, including Viper Comics' The Middleman and Oni Press's Ghost Projekt. His most popular work to date is the webcomic Butterfly, started in February 2005, the title character of which made his first print appearance in April 2006's Superior Showcase #1 from AdHouse Books.

Along with Jamie Dee Galey, Trippe was also one of the instigators of the 2005 Batgirl Livejournal Meme, which grew into a phenomenon of over 1000 artists contributing their own unique renditions of DC Comics' Batgirl. Following in this event, Trippe has become known for his stylish redesigns of popular American superhero characters, and went on to co-found with writer Chris Arrant, Project: Rooftop, a website devoted to original redesigns of classic American comic book characters.

Trippe collaborated with fellow comics creator Jason Horn on the short story, "Merman," for Image Comics' Comic Book Tattoo, the Eisner and Harvey Award wining anthology graphic novel inspired by the songs of musician Tori Amos. His most recent published work was the graphic novel Power Lunch: Book 1: First Course, with writer J. Torres, for Oni Press.
