[edit] Biography
Kitson's first professional work was Spider-Man for Marvel UK. He also drew many stories for 2000 AD, beginning with a Future Shock written by Peter Milligan and others by Grant Morrison, and going on to achieve great acclaim with his detailed work on Judge Anderson (written by Alan Grant).
His first work for DC Comics was a Batgirl special issue followed by other work like a run on The Titans.[1] In 2004, Kitson helped relaunch Legion of Super-Heroes[2] for DC Comics and continued on it for two and a half years ending with issue #31.
Kitson signed an exclusive contract with Marvel Comics in 2007,[citation needed] working on such titles as The Order, Secret Invasion: Fantastic Four, and The Amazing Spider-Man.[3] More recently, he worked on Incredible Hulk, an Iron Man miniseries and two issues of FF.
