Simon Bisley occupies an almost unique place in 2000 AD history as one of the first UK artists to popularise the fully painted style pioneered by Argentinian artist Alberto Brecchia. His highly dynamic artwork made his two major series in the Galaxy's Greatest Comic -- A.B.C. Warriors: The Black Hole and Slaine: The Horned God -- very popular, as they remain to date.
