Dermot Power

Dermot Power is a comics artist with a cool name who was born in 1967 in Ireland but currently lives in London. He has six siblings, a partner called Charlotte, a son and a website. Power broke into comics when he was commissioned to do the cover of a Judge Dredd video game in 1990. He went on to work for 2000 AD on Judge Dredd, Sláine and the 2000 AD Sci-Fi Special, in addition to illustrating Digitek and Sonic the Comic.

Since 1997 Power has started a new career as a storyboard and concept artist for the film industry. He has been involved with the Harry Potter series, Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland, Batman Begins, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones (but we shan't hold it against him). This has nothing whatsoever to do with British comics — it's just nice to see one of Tharg's former slaves valued colleagues doing so well.
