About this author

Professional comic book and storyboard artist Sam Hart has more than 30 years’ experience drawing superheroes and action-packed stories about characters and properties including Judge Dredd, Robin Hood, King Arthur, Joan of Arc, Power Rangers, VR Troopers and Starship Troopers.

After pursuing evil-doers in the pages of UK fanzines, he worked with colourist extraordinaire John Higgins and freelanced for many years in the world of magazine illustration and TV storyboards.

Living in Brazil, he created superheroes for advertising agencies, published his own comics and collaborated with Antony Johnston to illustrate the spy story The Coldest City, adapted to film in 2017 as Atomic Blonde, starring Oscar winner Charlize Theron.

Since 2004 Sam has regularly taught drawing and comic book art, first at libraries in São Paulo, Quanta Academia de Artes and then Axis School of Visual Effects. He presently features on the Domestika platform, with courses on visual narrative and inking for comic books.

Now back in England, Sam is married, has two daughters and, as a side-quest, is researching the ancient and mysterious technique of watercolours.
