Don Lawrence (1928-2003) was one of the most influential British illustrators and comic artists of the 20th century. Born in London on November 17, 1928, he became renowned for pushing the artistic boundaries of adventure comics with fully painted pages, an approach that was exceptionally rare at the time.

Tank Girl is a cult British comic created by Alan Martin and Jamie Hewlett that debuted in Deadline magazine in 1988. Set in a post-apocalyptic Australia, it follows the rebellious Rebecca Buck as she roams the desert in a heavily armed tank, accompanied by her mutant kangaroo friend Booga. Blending punk aesthetics, sci-fi, satire, and anarchic humor, the series became one of the defining works of the British alternative comics scene.

He painted the covers of many classic paperbacks of the era, including the likes of the Robert E. Howard collection Black Vulmea’s Vengeance (Zebra), three volumes of the Lin Carter paperback revival of Weird Tales, and Adrian Cole’s Dream Lords series.
