Garry Leach is a British comics artist and publisher. ==Biography== Garry Leach was first noted for his early work for 2000 AD, which was mainly on one-off stories featuring ''Dan Dare'' and ''M.A.C.H. 1''.〔(Garry Leach ) at Lambiek Comics Encyclopedia〕 He then became a fan-favourite for his work on the series ''The VCs''. In 1981 he joined Dez Skinn's company, Quality Communications.〔 where he workedd as art director and was the first artist on Alan Moore's revival of ''Marvelman'' in ''Warrior''.〔 His work on ''Marvelman'' proved highly popular but due to his slow pace of working, he left art duties to be replaced by Alan Davis. For Davis' first few stories Leach worked as inker to allow Davis to settle into the strip. Leach's work on ''Marvelman'' remained the prototype, as Davis has insisted that "my ‘style’ on the series was simply a bargain-basement attempt to imitate what Garry had done".〔 Leach and Alan Moore also created ''Warpsmith'' for ''Warrior'' together; ''Warpsmith'' featured in its own strip and eventually became a supporting character in ''Marvelman''.〔 With Dave Elliott, Leach set up Atomeka Press in 1988. Their first title was the anthology title, ''A1'',〔 which included new ''Warpsmith'' material by Moore and Leach. After Atomeka and ''A1'' finished in the mid-1990s, Leach worked mainly in advertising, but returned to comics in the late 1990s as John McCrea's inker on ''Hitman''.〔 He also drew the first issue of Warren Ellis's series ''Global Frequency'',〔 and designed many of that title's characters. He continues to contribute inking work to ''2000AD'',〔 most recently on ''Future Shorts'' with Rufus Dayglo. Leach has illustrated cards for the collectible card game ''Magic: The Gathering''. He has returned to publishing and restarted Atomeka Press with Dave Elliott.〔 ''A1'' is being published again with a mix of old and new material, including new work by Leach. The ''A1 Sketchbook'' was released in late 2004, containing four Miracleman-related pin-ups (although the pin-ups were not explicitly said to be Miracleman for possible legal reasons). A variant of the sketchbook was produced, featuring a Miracleman front cover and Kid Miracleman back cover by Leach. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Garry Leach」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
