Legendary UK comic book artist whose style was, for once, fully deserving the description "unique". Like so many others, I first encountered his work in the pages of "2000AD" with "Nemesis The Warlock". If you ever want to know what the difference between UK and mainstream US comics of the time was... well, read this. So the story goes, so singular was his art that he was the only comics book artist - as opposed to publication - to be sanctioned by the Comics Code Authority.

I know of him via Alan Moore's The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.

RIP Kevin O'Neill. 🙏

Nemesis The Warlock was awesome! I've been following his work since the late 80's. A great talent will be missed!
