ALAN MOORE is perhaps the most acclaimed writer in the graphic story medium, having garnered countless awards for such works as V for Vendetta, From Hell, Miracleman and SWAMP THING. He is also the mastermind behind the Americas Best Comics line, through which he has created (along with many talented illustrators) The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Promethea, Tom Strong, Tomorrow Stories and Top Ten.
As one of the medium's most important innovators since the early 1980s, Moore has influenced an entire generation of comics creators, and his work continues to inspire an ever-growing audience. Moore resides in central England. DAVE GIBBONS has worked in comics since 1973. Cutting his teeth on undergrounds and fanzines, he became a frequent contributor to Britain's 1000 AD, illustrating Harlem Heroes, Don Dare and co-creating Rogue Trooper.
Since then, he has drawn and written for most comics publishers on both sides of the Atlantic. His work has encompassed Doctor Who, SUPERMAN, BATMAN, GREEN LANTERN, Predator, Aliens, the Hugo Award-winning WATCHMEN with writer Alan Moore, Give Me liberty and Martha Washington Goes to War with Frank Miller. His semi-autobiographical The Originals won an Eisner Award in 2005. Recent work has involved The Secret Service, written by Mark Millar, and consultancy on motion books for the MADEFIRE app.
