John Brosnan

John Brosnan was a sci-fi and fantasy writer who was born in Perth, Australia in 1947 and died in South Harrow, London in 2005, aged 57, from acute pancreatitis. He wrote novels (three of which spawned film adaptations), short stories and non-fiction books, sometimes under the noms de plume Harry Adam Knight, Simon Ian Childer, James Blackstone or John Raymond. The only comics work he did was writing Night Zero and its three less successful follow-ups, Beyond Zero, Lost in Zero and Below Zero, for 2000 AD, in collaboration with artist Kev Hopgood. This covered the period 1988 - 1991.
