Chris Warner (born 1955) is an American comic book writer, artist, and editor for Dark Horse Comics. He worked extensively on their mid-1990s line of Comics' Greatest World and Dark Horse Heroes. Warner has also worked sporadically for other companies, such as DC Comics and Marvel Comics.[1]

Career

[edit]

Warner illustrated several comics based on the Predator franchise and came up with the idea for an Aliens vs. Predator crossover.[2] He is listed as the creator of Barb Wire and the developer of the setting of Steel Harbor for these lines.[3] His work on this line includes writing and penciling the mini-series Barb Wire: Ace of Spades (#1–4), penciling issues #10–12 of X, being the image illustrator (i.e., the visual creator) of characters like Ghost and is given creator credit on Wolf Gang, Pit Bulls and Motorhead. He also worked on Will to Power (issues #4–6 as writer & #10–12 as penciler) and the second volume of Ghost, on which he acted as writer and later co-writer for the majority of that title's run. Warner later became a senior editor for Dark Horse.[1]
