An award-winning critic and journalist, Kieron Gillen wrote for
organizations such as PC Gamer, The Guardian, Rock, Paper, Shotgun
and WIRED before turning his attention to comics. His previous
credits include the critically lauded Phonogram with frequent
creative partner Jamie McKelvie, as well as Thor, S.W.O.R.D. and
Generation Hope. Gillen relaunched two long-standing Marvel series
in Uncanny X-Men and Journey into Mystery before again teaming with
McKelvie for an acclaimed take on Young Avengers. Gillen turned his
attention to Iron Man for Marvel NOW! and proved the perfect scribe
to put carefully chosen words into the mouth of a legendary Star
Wars villain in Darth Vader. Gillen introduced Doctor Aphra into
the galaxy far, far away in those pages, and continues her
adventures in her own series.
Italian artist Carmine Di Giandomenico drew Zeb Wells' gritty
Daredevil- Battlin' Jack Murdock limited series and visualized the
highly stylized, street-level suspense of Spider-Man Noir with
writers David Hine and Fabrice Sapolsky. With writer Greg Rucka, he
pitted Frank Castle against the Avengers in Punisher- War Zone. He
later united with Peter David to deliver a fresh take on a familiar
team in All-New X-Factor for All-New Marvel NOW!
Stephanie Hans has provided covers for the relaunched Journey into
Mystery and other Marvel titles. After illustrating Avengers
Origins- Ant-Man & the Wasp, she moved from the Marvel Universe to
Stephen King's Mid-World with Dark Tower- The Gunslinger - The Way
Station.
The career of British-born artist Alan Davis took off like a rocket
after his humble beginnings at Marvel UK. Continuing the
collaboration that saw Captain Britain become an enduring critical
and fan-favorite, the two co-created D.R. and Quinch. Davis broke
into U.S. comics with runs on Batman and the Outsiders and
Detective Comics. Hired by Marvel U.S. in 1986, Davis launched
Excalibur with Chris Claremont, and the book quickly became one of
Marvel mutantdom's most unique and humorous titles. When Davis took
over as writer, he continued many plot threads from his Captain
Britain run. Davis also created the super-hero family ClanDestine,
and wrote and drew the DC miniseries JLA- The Nail. After a lengthy
arc writing and drawing X-Men, Davis went on to work on the
miniseries Killraven, Fantastic Four- The End and a ClanDestine
revival. He has also illustrated writer Brian Michael Bendis'
Avengers Prime and contributed to the status-quo-changing X-Men-
Schism, later helping relaunch Wolverine with writer Paul Cornell.
