Lee Garbett is a British comic book artist born in the West Midlands. He has worked on British comics before moving to DC's Wildstorm imprint.

Biography

When he was 12 he moved to Torquay where he met both Jock and Dom Reardon. As well as comics Lee also works as a graphic designer for several clothing labels and as a concept artist in game development.

He created the 4-issue mini-series "Dark Mists" with Annika Eade, which follows a group of Geisha blackmailed into becoming assassins. After AP Comics folded the title was picked up and reprinted by Markosia.

Lee left the series after issue #3 and moved to "2000 AD", most notably on the series "London Falling", co-created with Simon Spurrier. He also worked on a "Judge Dredd" strip for the Judge Dredd Megazine.

Most recently he has moved to US publisher, DC Comics and their Wildstorm imprint. There he first worked on the "The Highwaymen" before working with Keith Giffen on "Midnighter" and the DC/Wildstorm Universe crossover "Dreamwar".
