Bill Willingham

Bill Willingham is a novel and game artist. He is responsible for several famous, even iconic, illustrations in 1970s-era Advanced Dungeons & Dragons modules. He's the guy who drew that poor little white boy getting his brain sucked out by an illithid in the back cover of D1-2. Many a nightmare was thereby fueled.

Willingham butted heads with TSR's idiot management, including the coot himself; Palace of the Silver Princess was his last (semi)contribution.
