Pat Mills
Pat Mills
Pat Mills’ writing and editorial career started in Dundee, working for D.C. Thomson on the teenage romance magazine Romeo. Later Mills went freelance and started a long relationship with IPC Magazines, initially writing for girl’s titles like Tammy, Pink, and Sandy. He was an assistant editor on Tammy, the publication which began the comic revolution. Then, with Malcolm Shaw, he did some preliminary work devising Jinty before moving over to rejuvenate boy’s comics. He created Battle (with John Wagner), Action, Misty, and 2000 AD (featuring Judge Dredd). Other notable works include Marshal Law, Third World War in Crisis, the title series for Doctor Who Weekly, and Requiem – Vampire Knight. He has also recently written several books including Be Pure! Be Vigilant! Behave!, a history of 2000 AD, and Serial Killer with artist Kevin O’ Neill, a darkly comedic thriller.
Simon Bisley
Simon Bisley occupies an almost unique place in 2000 AD history, as one of the first UK artists to popularise the fully-painted style. His highly dynamic artwork made his two major series in the Galaxy’s Greatest Comic – A.B.C. Warriors: The Black Hole and Slaine: The Horned God – hugely popular. He also illustrated Heavy Metal Dredd, an ultra-graphic, adults-only take on the lawman, before going on to pencil the hugely successful first Batman/Judge Dredd crossover story, Judgement on Gotham. Bisley has provided countless pin-ups and short pieces across an astonishing variety of comics, from legendary fantasy anthology Heavy Metal to anarchic DC superhero series Lobo, and has an even more extensive CV in Europe, where his painted style enjoys enormous success.
Glenn Fabry
Glenn Fabry is a classic 2000 AD artist, best known for his innovative and highly detailed work on Slaine, though he has also illustrated Judge Dredd and a Future Shock, not to mention part of the Batman/Judge Dredd crossover story ‘Die Laughing’. Fabry’s best-known work outside the Galaxy’s Greatest Comic is almost certainly the full run of covers he painted for Preacher. However, his career is split between covers and sequential work, and he has also contributed to A1, The Authority, Global Frequency, Hellblazer, The Scarab, Swamp Thing, and Transmetropolitan.
