About the author(s)
One-time Entertainment Weekly’s “Man of the Year,” Peter Milligan was at the forefront of the revolution in comics which were created for a more sophisticated, adult audience. Shade the Changing Man for Vertigo offered a skewered look at American culture, while Enigma, Face and Rogan Gosh pushed the boundaries of what comic books could do. The hugely-popular X-Statix was a radical reworking of the X-Man paradigm, described by Kevin Smith (CLERKS) as “the most well-observed scholarly analysis of media-manipulation filtered through a pop-culture lens ever committed to the page.” Milligan is currently working on other film, comic and non-comic book projects.
