Stephen Collins je britský ilustrátor a kreslíř, jehož práce se objevuje v mnoha publikacích po celém světě. Ve svém debutovém grafickém románu se ponořil do absurdních témat a zkoumal, jak se jednotlivci vyrovnávají s nepředvídatelnými silami v životě. Jeho styl se vyznačuje jemnou rovnováhou mezi humorem a melancholií, často s nádechem existenciální úzkosti. Collins vytváří vizuálně bohaté příběhy, které diváky podněcují k zamyšlení o lidské povaze a našem místě ve světě.
