There he would edit comic adaptations of prose and literary works. Eventually he himself wrote authorised adaptations of original works by Alan Moore for Avatar Press.

    Antony has also penned numerous novels, starting with the horror story Frightening Curves, which won Best Horror at Book Expo America in 2000.
