James Axler

3.7/5 ( ratings)

"James Axler" was a house pseudonym used by Gold Eagle Books, the action adventure imprint of Harlequin Enterprises Ltd.

The pseudonym was first used for the Deathlands series, which began in 1986 with Pilgrimage to Hell, created by Christopher Lowder and co-written with Laurence James who continued Deathlands until retiring from the series in 1995.

At that point, prolific author and comics creator Mark Ellis took over the "Axler" pen name.

A busy comics creator in the 1980s and 90s, Mark created the popular Death Hawk character and also developed/created Star Rangers, The Justice Machine, Ninja Elite and The Miskatonic Project as well as working on such popular properties as Doc Savage, The Man From U.N.C.L.E., H.P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu, The Green Hornet, The Saint and The Wild Wild West and King Solomon's Mines.

In 1996 he created the best-selling OUTLANDERS series. He has produced more books as "James Axler" than any other writer, including contributions to the Deathlands series.

Combined with the audio book editions, OUTLANDERS comprises well over 100 novels.

The audio books are available through Graphic Audio.

With the cancellation of the Gold Eagle imprint at the end of 2015, OUTLANDERS ended its 18.5 year run, making it the most successful mass-market paperback series of the last 30 years.

Mark has been featured in Starlog, Comics Scene and Fangoria magazines. He has also been interviewed by Robert Siegel for NPR's All Things Considered.

His other books include THE EVERYTHING GUIDE TO WRITING GRAPHIC NOVELS, CRYPTOZOICA, THE EXECUTIONER: HELLFIRE TRIGGER, THE EXECUTIONER: DEVIL'S GUARD, THE SPUR: LOKI'S ROCK, THE SPUR: HELLDORADO and THE FALCON: RESURRECTED.

His most recent books are PARALLAX PRIME: OF DIRE CHIMERAS , KNIGHTWATCH: INVICTUS X , DEATH HAWK THE COMPLETE SAGA , CALL SIGN CERBERUS: EXILE TO HELL , LAKOTA and NOSFERATU: SOVEREIGN OF TERROR .

He lives in rural Ireland with his wife, best-selling author Melissa Martin Ellis.
