'Dan Abnett' (born 1965) is a
British writer, mainly of
comic books and gaming fiction.
Primarily Abnett has worked for ''
2000 AD'' and
Marvel Comics (including their
UK imprint) since the early 1990s, although he has also contributed to
DC Comics titles. His
Warhammer Fantasy and
Warhammer 40,000 novels and graphic novels for
Games Workshop's
Black Library now run to several dozen titles.
Biography
As one of the more prolific 2000AD writers, Abnett was responsible for the creation of one of the comic's better known, and longest-running, strips of the last decade, ''
Sinister Dexter''. Other original stories include ''Black Light'', ''Badlands'', ''
Atavar'', ''
Downlode Tales'', ''
Sancho Panzer'', ''Roadkill'' and ''Wardog'', based on the game of the same name. Abnett has also contributed to some of the comic's major ongoing series, including ''
Judge Dredd'', ''
Durham Red'' and ''
Rogue Trooper''.
His work for
Marvel includes runs on ''
Death's Head 2'', ''
Battletide'', ''
Knights of Pendragon'' (all of which he co-created), ''The
Punisher'', ''
War Machine'', ''Annihilation: Nova'' and various ''
X-Men'' titles.
At
DC he is probably best-known for his 2000 relaunch of ''
Legion of Super-Heroes''. His work for DC is usually co-written with
Andy Lanning and they are often referred to as DnA.
For
Dark Horse Comics he co-wrote ''
Planet of the Apes: Blood Lines'' with
Ian Edginton as well a penning ''
Lords of Misrule'' and ''
HyperSonic''.
He has written books about
Warhammer 40,000 universe (
Military science fiction genre). They include the
Gaunt's Ghosts series, the
Eisenhorn trilogy and Ravenor spin-off and more recently, the first book of the
Horus Heresy series, the SF besteller "Horus Rising". He has also written three Warhammer Fantasy novels. He also wrote novel for the ''
Doctor Who'' spin-off ''
Torchwood'' called ''
Border Princes'' in 2007.
In 1994, he wrote a promotional comic to promote the opening of the
Nemesis roller coaster at
Alton Towers.

More recently he has finished the final book of ''
The V.C.s'' and will soon have ''Black Atlantic'' in the ''
