Simon "S.B." Davis

Simon Davis' unique, angular painted style has been a fixture of Sinister Dexter for some years now, since his 2000 AD debut on the series. He has also found the time to create B.L.A.I.R. 1 and Black Siddha, as well as contributing to Downlode Tales, Judge Dredd, Missionary Man, Outlaw, Plagues of Necropolis, Tales of Telguuth, Tharg the Mighty andVector 13. His most recent non-2000 AD work was on DC's JLA: Riddle of the Beast.

Andy Diggle

Although Andy Diggle's contributions to 2000 AD may not seem substantial, it was under his editorial drive and vision that the comic is widely thought to have scaled new heights, something Diggle has carried into his writing work as co-creator of Lenny Zero and Snow/Tiger — both immediate fan-favourites.

Recently named in Entertainment Weekly's "Hot 100" list of creatives, Diggle has made an immediate impact with DC comics, for whom he now writes under exclusive contract. Beginning with spin-off series Lady Constantine, Diggle then reimagined The Losers with his Lenny Zero collaborator, Jock, and has enjoyed great success. His most recent new work was on a Swamp Thing miniseries, with Argentinian artist Enrique Brecchia.

Warriors, Bad Company, Judge Dredd, Harlem Heroes, Mean Arena, Ro-Busters, Rogue Trooper, Ro-Jaws' Robo-Tales and Tyranny Rex.

Dillon shot to international superstardom as a result of his work on DC/Vertigo's Preacher, co-created with 2000 AD's Garth Ennis, but he has also worked on A1, Animal Man, Captain Britain, Deadline, Global Frequency, Hellblazer and Punisher.
