John Royle - Manchester

I enjoy penciling stories with the characters I read as a child, like the X-Men, Avengers and Spiderman. One of my goals is to spark a little of the imagination and magic the stories gave me as a child to the next generation of comic fans. At present I am penciling for Marvel-Panini UK on the Spectacular Spiderman comic. Previously I have worked on such books as Wolverine (a graphic novel), Excalibur, Star Trek -Starfleet Academy, Ultra-Force, Robin, and Spiderman. The Sunday Times commissioned me to do a series of Spiderman stories which were published in early 2006. I recently illustrated a book by comic god Stan Lee (the creator of Spiderman, Fantastic Four, The Hulk and X-men) called Alexa published by I Books alongside such comic legends as Dave Gibbons (Watchmen) & Dan Jurgens (Superman). I enjoy a variety of creative work and have also created Photoshop illustrations for such clients as GQ , Orange, and Aussiebum , Samples off artwork can be found on www.johnroyleart.com Client List Includes: Marvel Comics (USA & UK), DC Comics, Panini, The Times, Paramount Pictures, Malibu Comics, Acclaim, Readers Digest USA, Time Warner, Natmag Rodale, GQ, Orange, Conde Nast Publishing.
