Hilda and the Black Hound

Luke Pearson is the creator of the Hilda comic book series. He was also a writer and co-executive producer of the BAFTA and Emmy award-winning animated series of the same name. Outside of his work on Hilda, Luke has been an illustrator, a storyboard artist and has drawn a range of other comics. In 2025, Hilda and Twig: Hide from the Rain became the first British comic to win the Eisner Award for Best Publication for Early Readers!?

Hilda's broad curiosity and willingness to stand up for the undergnome will make her a winner in most readers' eyes.
