Sean Murphy

Sean Murphy got interested in comics in grade school and spent many afternoons of his childhood drawing instead of making friends. His formal education started in Salem, NH as an apprentice to Leslie Swank, local painter, cartoonist and WWII vet. After graduating Pinkerton Academy high school in 1999 he attended Massachusetts College of Art (Boston) and then the Savannah College of Art and Design. He started working professionally before graduating with titles like Star Wars and Noble Causes, then moved to Hollywood while working on various other projects for Dark Horse Comics. His career started gaining more steam when DC Comics offered him titles like Batman/Scarecrow: Year One and Teen Titans. In 2005 he published his first original graphic novel called Off Road, which went on to win an American Library Association award for young adults. Last year saw the release of his second OGN titled Outer Orbit (co created and drawn with long time friend Zach Howard). His day to day work lately has been working with Vertigo Comics on a project with Neil Young, freelancing with concept art for various Hollywood studios, doing covers for Marvel Comics and working on his next OGN, Punk Rock Jesus.

Duncan Fegredo

Fegredo first managed to get into comics after showing his portfolio around UKCAC in 1987 and meeting Dave Thorpe. Together they worked on a strip for a short lived British magazine called Heartbreak Hotel. After this, Fegredo worked on Crisis for Fleetway before working on Kid Eternity at DC Comics with writer Grant Morrison. He then worked with writer Peter Milligan on Enigma, an eight-issue miniseries for DC’s Vertigo imprint. At 2000 AD he worked on Judge Dredd and other titles. Other notable work includes the comic-book versions of Kevin Smith’s Jay and Silent Bob characters, Shade the Changing Man and Ultimate Adventures. Duncan began working in the Hellboy Universe when he took over the duties of ongoing Hellboy artist from Mike Mignola for Darkness Calls. He stepped down as ongoing artist when he finished The Fury, but has remained a part of the Hellboy team drawing covers for B.P.R.D. stories and is scheduled to do the interior art for more stories set in the Hellboy Universe.
