[edit] Biography

After starting in Crisis, from 1993 to 1995 he was a regular writer for the Judge Dredd Megazine, creating characters such as Harke & Burr and The Creep as well as working on established characters (e.g. Judge Dredd).

Among North American publishers his work has primarily appeared in series published by DC Comics under their Vertigo imprint. A good example of his Vertigo work is Books of Magick: Life During Wartime.

Si Spencer has also written for television. He has worked as a staff writer for the BBC's EastEnders and ITV's The Bill. In March 2006, it was announced in issue 368 of Doctor Who Magazine that he was to write an episode for the Doctor Who spin-off series Torchwood and even made an appearance at the 2006 Bristol Comic Expo to publicise it; however, he was not among the writers of episodes for the first series.

His recent work includes The Vinyl Underground for Vertigo.
