Graham Nolan

Graham Nolan is a comic book artist, best-known for work for DC Comics on Batman-related titles in the 1990s and his work on "The Phantom" Sunday strip. He frequently collaborates with writer Chuck Dixon.

In 1998 he created and published his own comic strip, "Monster Island". When this story was reprinted as a back-up feature in the Scandinavian Phantom comic books (Fantomen and Fantomet), Nolan was also asked to provide painted Phantom covers for three issues. This, combined with a Phantom story Nolan and Chuck Dixon had made previously for a trading card series, led to Nolan being offered the job as artist on the Phantom Sunday strip in 2000. Nolan quickly accepted the offer, as the character had been one of his favorites since childhood.

By the time he was offered to work with The Phantom he was already the daily and Sunday artist on another newspaper strip, "Rex Morgan, M.D.". Originally his intention had been to syndicate his own "Monster Island" strip, but when it was rejected he was offered work on "Rex Morgan" and later on "The Phantom".

Nolan pencilled, inked, lettered and colored his work on these two newspaper strips. He also filled in on the "Judge Parker" strip for a week in late 2006 when artist Eduardo Barreto was injured in a car accident in Uruguay.

In 2006, Nolan also drew a story for Moonstone Books' Phantom Annual, which was written by his former Batman-partner, Chuck Dixon.

He left the Phantom strip in 2006, with Paul Ryan taking over for him on the Sunday pages, to work on other projects. During his tenure he also wrote one Phantom Sunday story, and he has written another story for Team Fantomen.
