I worry about the many things that could happen to the people I love.

I grew up in the East End of London, the youngest of three boys in a Catholic household. Both my parents were market traders and worked seven days a week.

For me, a good friend is someone you might only see once or twice a year but each time it feels as though you've just seen them last week.

I've always loved comic books. As a kid, I used to read cowboy stories and historical comics about other worlds, unknown places that would take me out of myself and which helped to develop my imagination.
