Paul Hatcher started cartooning in 1992 during a period of unemployment after dropping out of university and has self published comedy comics on and off ever since. He is best known for his 1996 comic pack The World Stare-out Championship Final which was adapted into animated shorts for the 1998 BBC2 comedy sketch show Big Train. After the success of Big Train, the Stare-out was published as a 64 page hardback by Bloomsbury in 2000. A follow up, Chang Gin Ming’s Guide To Referring Stare-out, was published the following year. Paul has also illustrated magazine articles for Esquire. Over the years Paul has worked as a printer/photocopier, photographic technician, cinema projectionist, English Teacher (in Spain) and a full time carer. He currently splits his time between his afternoon warehouse job and his cartoon projects.
