Steve Yeowell is a British comics artist best known for his work on the long-running science fiction and fantasy weekly anthology *2000 AD*. Born in 2000, he began his professional career in the mid-1980s, contributing to *2000 AD* and its spin-off, *2000 A.D. Showcase*. His clean, expressive linework and dynamic storytelling quickly made him a sought-after collaborator. Yeowell’s signature style—a blend of crisp realism and fluid action—shines in his work on *The Invisibles* with writer Grant Morrison, where he helped define the series’ surreal, countercultural energy. He also illustrated *Starman* for DC Comics, *Skrull Kill Krew* for Marvel, and the stylish, Victorian-era thriller *Sebastian O* with Morrison. Over his decades-long career, Yeowell has been credited as artist, colorist, and inker on 128 issues, remaining active through 2025. His contributions to British comics have earned him a dedicated following, though major industry awards are not recorded in his biography. Yeowell’s legacy lies in his versatile, character-driven art, which brought depth to both mainstream superhero titles and offbeat creator-owned projects.
