Simon Gane
|}} Simon Gane is a British artist from Bath known for his work in the comic book field.Gane grew up influenced by the comics of Hergé and Jacques Tardi. He attended art school in the U.K. Later comics influences included Christophe Blain and Joann Sfar, as well as the minicomics of Tom Hart, David Lasky, and Adrian Tomine.
Gane's work was first published in his "self-produced punk fanzine, ''Arnie'', and various minicomics before being collected in ''Punk Strips''" (Slab-O-Concrete, 2000).
His first work published in the United States came in 2004 with Eureka Productions in ''Graphic Classics #9: Robert Louis Stevenson'', and the kids' Godzilla comic, ''All Flee!'' (Top Shelf Productions). After illustrating the five-issue comic ''Paris'', written by fellow Englishman Andi Watson and published by Slave Labor Graphics, Gane found a home with Vertigo Comics, first with ''The Vinyl Underground'' and then ''Dark Rain: A New Orleans Story'' and ''Northlanders''. Gane described ''The Vinyl Underground'' as being "set in London and featur[ing] an ad-hoc group of self-appointed detectives who become embroiled in occult-tinged crimes with a strong supporting cast of mobsters and so on."
Gane is the official illustrator for the Burning Sky Brewery in East Sussex. Provided by Wikipedia
