About the author
Kieron Gillen first came to attention as a comic writer with his 2006's
Phonogram, with Jamie McKelvie. They continued to work together across the next fifteen year, culminating with smash hit
The Wicked + the Divine. Since then he's had the pleasure of creating stories with other artists such as Stephanie Hans (
DIE, We Called Them Giants) and Caspar Wijngaard (the current sensation,
The Power Fantasy). He has worked on Marvel Comics biggest books, such as
Immortal X-men, Young Avengers, Thor, Iron Man, Star Wars, Eternals and
Darth Vader, (where he co-created Doctor Aphra). In a previous life he was an award-winning pop-culture critic. In his current life, he tries to sleep more. He lives in Bath, UK.
