[edit] Career
Since 2003, McKelvie has collaborated with journalist Kieron Gillen on a comic strip for the official Playstation Magazine UK, entitled Save Point. He has worked on a number of projects for Image Comics, including the six-issue series Phonogram. His next major work was with colorist Guy Major and Matthew Wilson on his creator-owned series Suburban Glamour, and in advance of the first issue, Jamie was dubbed "one of the major new talents of the decade" by Warren Ellis.[1]
He has done art and covers for several comics, including X-Men and Hack/Slash. His current major work is a sequel to Phonogram, called Phonogram - Singles Club, being published over 2008-2010. In February and March 2009, he drew issues 11 and 12 of Cable for Marvel and 5 pages for Gotham Gazette: Batman Dead? for DC.
McKelvie's artwork also graces the covers of the album Brilliant! Tragic! and single "Lost Weekend"[2] by Art Brut.
