About the Author

Acclaimed author and screenwriter Benjamin Percy broke into comics in 2014 with a two-issue Batman story arc for Detective Comics. He is also known for his work on Nightwing, Green Arrow and Teen Titans for DC Comics, and James Bond: Black Box for Dynamite Entertainment. Percy has written two seasons of Marvel's Wolverine podcast series: Wolverine: The Long Night, which was listed as one of the top fifteen podcasts of the year by Apple and won the iHeart Radio Award for best scripted podcast in 2018, and Wolverine: The Lost Trail. In print, he is a key contributor to Jonathan Hickman's Dawn of X initiative as writer of X-Force and Wolverine. Percy blazed a new trail for the Spirit of Vengeance with his deliciously dark revival of Ghost Rider.

Artist Robert Gill brought his talents to The Totally Awesome Hulk during the acclaimed "Weapons of Mutant Destruction" crossover, and then joined writer Sina Grace on the Iceman solo series.

UK concept artist and illustrator Paul Davidson's first work for Marvel came on mutant-universe titles Dark X-Men: The Beginning and New Mutants, and he has continued the association on books including Magneto, X-Factor and X-Men: Legacy.
