Phil Elliott (born 1960) is a British comic book creator who was published in ''Escape Magazine''. He was part of the British small press comics scene in the 1980s. ==Career== After contributing spot illustrations to comic fanzines such as ''Bemusing'' and ''The Panelologist'' in the mid 70's, Elliott decided to try his hand at publishing his own fanzine and, with the help of Ian Wieczorek and Paul Chester released ''Blitzine'', followed by ''Delapsus Resurgam''. In 1977 Elliott, with co-editors John Matthews (a fellow comic artist) and Ian Wieczorek, published the comic fanzine, ''Elipse''. ''Elipse'' ran for three issues and printed early strips by Kev F Sutherland, Mike Matthews, and Dave Hine as well as Elliott himself. ''Elipse'' was a unique fanzine at the time, featuring solely comic strips. In the early 1980s Elliott became re-acquainted with an old comic collecting friend, Paul Gravett, who was working on ''Pssst!'' magazine. Unable to get his worked published in ''Pssst!'', Elliott decided to return to self-publishing and, with Ian Wieczorek again, released the ''Fast Fiction'' comic, which took its name from the Fast Fiction comics distribution service. One of the artists Phil chose to publish in ''Fast Fiction'' was Eddie Campbell. Elliott collaborated with Campbell between 1984 and 1986 on various comic strips that ran in the music paper ''Sounds'' and drew the first issue of Campbell's ''Lucifer''. Elliott was also responsible for colouring many of the covers of Campbell's comics for Harrier Comics. Elliott also formed a strong creative partnership with Glenn Dakin, which resulted in comics such as ''Greenhouse Warriors'', ''Mr Night'' and ''The Man from Cancer''. Elliott was a regular contributor to the influential UK comic magazine ''Escape'', and in 1985 ''Escape'' published his ''Doc Chaos'' comic. ''Doc Chaos'' was written by Dave Thorpe and Lawrence Gray. In 1985 Elliott began drawing ''The Suttons'' for his local newspaper, ''The Maidstone Star''. This comic strip ran for three years. After handing over the editorship of ''Fast Fiction'' to Ed Pinsent, Elliott began editing ''!GAG!'' for Harrier Comics. Harrier Comics also published Elliott and Paul Duncan's four-issue ''Second City'' comic as well as two collections of Elliott's ''A Tale from Gimbley'' stories, ''Some Tales From Gimbley'' and ''More Tales From Gimbley''. Elliott has worked in some capacity for most of the major comic publishers in the US and UK. His comic ''Blite'' was published by Fantagraphics. He was an artist on ''The Real Ghostbusters'' comic for Marvel UK and was the colourist on the first seven issues of Paul Grist's superhero comic book, ''Jack Staff''. Other work has appeared in ''Punch'', ''Knockabout'', ''Fox Comics'' and ''Power Rangers''. Elliott has recently coloured ''Doctor Who'' comics for IDW Publishing. 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「Phil Elliott」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
