Thomas Gilbert

Born in 1983, Thomas Gilbert spent a year studying the fine arts in Paris and three more at the Saint-Luc Institute in Brussels, specializing in comics, before beginning his career as an author with two series, Oklahoma Boy (Manolosanctis) and the long-running heroic fantasy series Bjorn le Morphir (Casterman). His primary influences came from L'Association, which taught him the importance of the author's perspective in developing a narrative. In the years since, Gilbert has done books for children (such as Nordics with Sarbacane) and other works skewed more toward adults, including Sauvage ou la sagesse des pierres, with Vide Cocagne). In 2018, Gilbert completed Les Filles de Salem (Dargaud; The Daughters of Salem, Europe Comics), plunging

Bill Willingham

In the late 1970s to early 1980s he drew fantasy ink pictures for the Dungeons & Dragons Basic and Expert game rulebooks. He first gained attention for his 1980s comic book series Elementals published by Comico, which he both wrote and drew. However, for reasons unknown, the series had trouble maintaining an original schedule, and Willingham's position in the industry remained spotty for many years. He contributed stories to Green Lantern and started his own independent, black-and-white comics series Coventry which lasted only 3 issues. He also produced the pornographic series Ironwood for Eros Comix.

In the late 1990s Willingham reestablished himself as a prolific writer. He produced the 13-issue Pantheon for Lone Star Press and wrote a pa
