Author Notes:Robert Ball has been a practicing graphic designer since 2000 and has illustrated throughout his career. His work carries the dynamism of comic-book art mixed with an eye for the absurd, influenced by a misspent youth poring over the pages of Marvel comics and 2000AD . He lives in the UK.
