Petri Hiltunen is a Helsinki-based illustrator and comics artist. Most of his work is in black and white, although he has also experimented with colours. Hiltunen usually writes his own comics but is also happy to collaborate with other artists and writers when the opportunity arises. He loves genres such as science fiction, fantasy, and history, but his work often features dark horror elements. Hiltunen appreciates both high culture and popular culture, and the influence of both is strongly visible in his work.
