Continuing the collaboration that saw Captain Britain become an enduring   critical and fan-favorite, the two co-created D.R.   and Quinch. Davis broke into U.S. comics with runs   on Batman and the Outsiders and Detective Comics. Hired by Marvel U.S. in 1986, Davis launched Excalibur with Chris Claremont, and   the book quickly became one of Marvel mutantdom’s most unique and humorous   titles. When Davis took over as writer, he continued many plot threads from   his Captain Britain   run. Davis also created the super-hero family ClanDestine, and wrote and drew the DC miniseries JLA: The Nail. After a lengthy arc   writing and drawing X-Men,   Davis went on to work on the miniseries Killraven, Fantastic Four: The End and a ClanDestine revival. He has also illustrated writer Brian Michael Bendis’ Avengers Prime and contributed to   the status-quo-changing X-Men: Schism, later helping relaunch Wolverine with writer Paul Cornell.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eScott Lobdell\u003c\/b\u003e wrote both Uncanny X-Men and X-Men during the 1990s.

Elsewhere, he wrote Dark Horse’s Buffy   the Vampire Slayer with Fabian Nicieza,   Wildstorm’s Gen13, Top   Cow’s Darkness, and   IDW’s Ghostbusters: Displaced Aggression and Galaxy Quest. Lobdell scripted Stan Lee’s animated film Mosaic and has performed as a   stand-up comedian.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter working consistently throughout the 1990s, artist \u003cb\u003eScott Kolins\u003c\/b\u003e made his mark with a   critically acclaimed two-year tenure on DC’s Flash with writer Geoff Johns. Kolins reteamed with Johns at Marvel,   on Avengers and the   limited series Thing: Freakshow. He also partnered with writer Robert Kirkman to revive the   classic series Marvel Team-Up. Kolins’ unique skill at portraying larger-than-life   super-heroic action with a high level of detail earned him a number of choice   assignments, including Beyond!, a sequel of sorts to the classic Marvel   Super Heroes Secret Wars. Often inking his own   work, Kolins’ other Marvel projects include Thor:   Blood Oath, Ultimate   Fantastic Four, Omega   Flight, Annihilation Prologue and Stan Lee Meets The Thing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eKen Lashley\u003c\/b\u003e’s pencils have graced the pages   of such notable books as Black Panther and Excalibur.
