The Invisibles - Creators

Creators

While Grant Morrison wrote the entire series, The Invisibles never had a regular art team. It was intended that each story arc would be illustrated by a separate artist. The artists to work on each issue are:

  • Volume 1
    • Issues #1-4, 22-24: Steve Yeowell
    • Issues #5-9, 13-15: Jill Thompson
    • Issue #10: Chris Weston
    • Issue #11: John Ridgway
    • Issue #12: Steve Parkhouse
    • Issue #16, 21: Paul Johnson
    • Issues #17-19: Phil Jimenez
    • Issue #20: Tommy Lee Edwards
    • Issue #25: Mark Buckingham
  • Volume 2
    • Issues #1-13: Phil Jimenez (Issue #9 has Jimenez on layouts only, with the pencils handled by Chris Weston, credited as "Space Boy")
    • Issues #14-17, 19-22: Chris Weston
    • Issue #18: Ivan Reis
  • Volume 3
    • Issue #1: Frank Quitely
    • Issue #2: Steve Yeowell, The Pander Brothers, John Ridgway, Cameron Stewart, Ashley Wood, Mark Buckingham, Dean Ormston, Grant Morrison
    • Issue #3: Steve Yeowell, Rian Hughes, John Ridgway, Michael Lark, Jill Thompson, Chris Weston
    • Issue #4: Steve Yeowell, Ashley Wood, Steve Parkhouse, Philip Bond, Jill Thompson, John Ridgway
    • Issues #5-8: Sean Phillips
    • Issues #9-12: Philip Bond, Warren Pleece


Issues #4-2 included artistic collaborators who did not illustrate Morrison's scripts precisely as written. The most notable examples were the three pages Ashley Wood drew in Vol. 3, #2 that were later redrawn by Cameron Stewart for The Invisible Kingdom trade paperback.

Famous quotes containing the word creators:

    A dramatic experience concerned with the mundane may inform but it cannot release; and one concerned essentially with the aesthetic politics of its creators may divert or anger, but it cannot enlighten.
    David Mamet (b. 1947)

    What is most original in a man’s nature is often that which is most desperate. Thus new systems are forced on the world by men who simply cannot bear the pain of living with what is. Creators care nothing for their systems except that they be unique. If Hitler had been born in Nazi Germany he wouldn’t have been content to enjoy the atmosphere.
    Leonard Cohen (b. 1934)

    Women of a selected class, by the use of slaves and servants have become inactive, the mere recipients of values, no longer creators but “feeding on unearned wealth.” This hurts their nature and debases the social fabric. If a woman does no labor in her home which could properly make her self-supporting outside that home she is in duty bound to do something outside her home to justify her claim to support.
    Anna Garlin Spencer (1851–1931)
