Growing up, Cameron Stewart was an artistically inclined person who loved every comic book he could get his hands on. At an early age, Cameron decided to follow his passion and the road he set out on during his teens eventually led him to DC Comics and assignments to work on two of their most popular titles, Catwoman and Batgirl.
Stewart first broke into the industry in 1999 when he was called upon to create storyboard illustrations for the Sony/Dreamworks Animation series Men In Black, which was based on the popular film franchise and directed by Darwyn Cooke. He then collaborated with superstar writer Grant Morrison on the acclaimed cult comics series The Invisibles, and co-founded the Royal Academy of Illustration and Design (RAID), a collective of freelance comic book artists, writers and illustrators that exists to this day.
Stewart moved on to a series of collaborations with Morrison on the absurdist superhero fantasy series Seaguy, its sequel, Seaguy: Slaves of Mickey Eye, The Manhattan Guardian, part of the epic Seven Soldiers series, Batman and Robin, Batman Incorporated, and Multiversity: Thunderworld, a fan-favorite re-interpretation of the character Shazam.
In 2014, Cameron Stewart published a long-form graphic novel Sin Titulo, a semi-autobiographical noir thriller inspired by the works of David Lynch and Haruki Murakami that would eventually win a 2010 Eisner Award for Best Digital Comic.
The year 2015 brought two major breakthroughs for Cameron. He illustrated the sequel to the acclaimed cult novel Fight Club, written by original author Chuck Palahniuk. The book would spend six months at number one on the New York Times’ Graphic Novel bestseller list. He also spearheaded DC Comics’ wildly popular revamp of Batgirl with a character that was reimagined with a pop art format for the young adult market.
