Chuck Dixon is an Inkpot Award-winning comic book writer who is best known for his work on Punisher for Marvel and Batman/Detective comics for DC Comics. Dixon is best known for co-creating the infamous character Bane for DC Comics in the 1990s. He has worked for a handful of other publishers throughout his career as well, including Dark Horse, IDW Publishing and Bongo Comics.

At Marvel, Dixon began as a back-up writer for their Savage Sword of Conan series, working for other publishers on the side. In 1989 he started writing the series, Marc Spector: Moon Knight, and then The Punisher: Kingdom Come, which led to work on other Punisher titles like The Punisher War Journal. He caught the attention of DC Comics and was hired to write their new Robin series, which ultimately led to Dixon writing Batman for the majority of the 1990s. After DC, he went on to write series for other publishers such as Simpsons Comics, Transformers: Evolutions and G.I. Joe.

Graham Nolan is an Inkpot Award-winning comic book illustrator who is best known for his work on Batman/Detective Comics alongside Chuck Dixon for DC Comics in the 1990s. He helped co-create the character Bane and played an instrumental role in illustrating the iconic Knightfall series.

During his time with DC, Nolan illustrated series such as Bane: Conquest, Batman: Bane of the Demon, Batman: Vengeance of Bane and Batman: Vengeance of Bane II The Redemption. Nolan created and published his own book called Monster Island, then went on to work on The Sunday Phantom newspaper strips as well as working for other publishers, IDW Publishing and Ominous Press. He created a webcomic in 2009 called Sunshine State, which can be viewed at www.sunshinestatecomics.com.
