About the artist:
Kyle Platts grew up in Sheffield, England, and despite being told by a careers advisor to work in a steel mill rather than pursue a career as a cartoonist, he studied illustration at Camberwell College of Arts and graduated in 2011. Since graduating he has had great success as a freelance illustrator and has published two books with Nobrow Press, Megaskull and Festival Frenzy. Kyle’s comics aim to create a graphic reflection of culture, where macabre content is juxtaposed with vibrant colour and comic humour
