Duncan Fegredo

Duncan Fegredo (; born 1964) is a British comic book artist.

Career

Born in Leicester, Fegredo first managed to get into comics after showing his portfolio around UKCAC in 1987 and meeting Dave Thorpe. Together they worked on a strip for a short lived British magazine called ''Heartbreak Hotel''. After this, Fegredo worked at '' Crisis'' for Fleetway before working on '' Kid Eternity'' at DC Comics with writer Grant Morrison. He then worked with writer Peter Milligan on '' Enigma'', an eight-issue miniseries for DC's Vertigo imprint. At '' 2000 AD'' he worked on '' Judge Dredd'' and a couple of other titles.

Other work includes the comic-book versions of Kevin Smith's ''Jay and Silent Bob'' characters, ''Shade the Changing Man'' and ''Ultimate Adventures''

For a few years, Duncan Fegredo was the regular artist on '' Dark Horse's'' ''Hellboy'' series. Fegredo's six-issue miniseries, '' Hellboy: Darkness Calls'', was the first Hellboy miniseries that did not feature Hellboy creator Mike Mignola on art (Mignola plotted the book). Fegredo went on to do the art for the short story Hellboy: The Mole, the eight-issue miniseries '' Hellboy: The Wild Hunt'', and the miniseries '' The Storm and The Fury'' (both three issues). The Fury will be his final story as the regular artist, with Mike Mignola returning for the next miniseries.

On 9 April 2011 Fegredo was one of 62 comics creators who appeared at the IGN stage at the Kapow! convention in London to set two Guinness World Records, the Fastest Production of a Comic Book, and Most Contributors to a Comic Book. With Guinness officials on hand to monitor their progress, writer Mark Millar began work at 9am scripting a 20-page black and white ''Superior'' comic book, with Fegredo and the other artists appearing on stage throughout the day to work on the pencils, inks, and lettering, including Dave Gibbons, Frank Quitely, John Romita Jr., Jock,"Kapow!
