Hammerstein by Kev Walker

Kev Walker is an artist and illustrator, who started work on 2000ad, but now works primarily  for Marvel Comics. Kev's career began in 1987 working on Future Shocks for 2000 AD, and this was followed up with work on some of the most popular stories in 2000ad, including Judge Dredd, Rogue Trooper, ABC Warriors and Judge Anderson. Originally known for a glossy, painted style and the fine detail of his inked work, he has since changed the way he works, using a high contrast black line style with heavy shadows coupled with flat computer colouring. 
From 2002 onwards Kev has largely worked for Marvel comics including the third and forth books in the Marvel Zombies series and the Thunderbolts. But during this time he also found time to work on several Judge Dredd stories including the excellent Mandroid.

Tomás de Torquemada by Chris Weston

Having started drawing for 2000ad in 1988 doing Future Shock and an occasional Dredd, Chris Weston really got peoples attention when he teamed up with, John Smith, this was where his artwork developed a much weirder style. There  teamwork culminated in the ten-part Indigo Prime story, Killing Time, which has gone done as one of the all time best stories in 2000ad. After this he worked with  Mark Millar for the much underrated Canon Fodder story. From this partnership, Mark went on to champion his artwork and introduced him to the editors at D.C. 

Chris has since gone on to work on The Invisibles, Starman, JLA Lucifer and The Authority. He has also worked on the film Book of Eli where he provided the story-boards for the film.
