Phil Winslade (born 1965) is a British comic book artist.
Biography
Winslade was born in
Surrey in 1965 and spent a lot of time indoors as a child because of a
heart murmur. His main source of entertainment were
Marvel Comics Comics such as
Howard the Duck and
Deathlok. After he attended
UCE Birmingham, to study art, he had the idea of working in the comics industry. Here he met
Steve Pugh who was already active in comic art.
[Bookend in Goddess #2 by Archie Goodwin]
He produced commercial artwork after college before showing his portfolio to Garth Ennis at a comic convention in Coventry, where he got the job drawing Goddess. Before that project started he worked on Crisis and Revolver as well as inking Steve Dillon's work on Car Warriors for Epic Comics. During this period he also worked on Elaine Lee's Skin Tight Orbit and was pencilled in as the artist for The Red Seas, with writer Ian Edginton, when it was going to be run by Epic Comics, but he was too busy with Goddess.
Since then he has worked for Marvel Comics, DC Comics and 2000 AD.
Awards
His work has won him a 1997 National Cartoonists Society nomination for Best Comic Book.
He was nominated for the 1996 "Best Cover Artist" and "Best Painter" Eisner Award for his work on Vertigo's Goddess and Vamps: Hollywood & Vein.[ 1996 Will Eisner Comic Industry Award Nominees and Winners, Comic Book Awards Almanac]
