Frazer Irving (born in the1970s, Ilford, Essex) is a British horror artist who became known for the 2000 AD series "Necronauts". Since breaking into the American market he has also worked on a number of superhero titles.

Biography

He has also enjoyed success with "Storming Heaven", a psychedelic tale based around Timothy Leary and Charles Manson (written by Rennie), and "The Simping Detective" and "From Grace" written by Simon Spurrier.

He has done illustration work for RPG companies like Wizards of the Coast, Hogshead Publishing and Guardians of Order, as well as small press publications like "The End Is Nigh". He has also done work, including producing Flash animations, for advertising agencies.

Irving's style owes something to the art of Bernie Wrightson, but with a computer-driven edge. His latest work, on "Klarion the Witch Boy", has received some praise in the United States.

Recent projects include "Gutsville" with Simon Spurrier and Marvel's "Silent War" a six-issue mini-series featuring the Inhumans written by David Hine. [ [http://forum.newsarama.com/showthread.php?t=91391 David Hine: Talking "Silent War" - Updated With Art] , Newsarama, November 17, 2006]
