David Lloyd (Londres 1950) es conocido principalmente por su trabajo en V de Vendetta junto al escritor Alan Moore. En la serie Hellblazer, protagonizada por el detective sobrenatural John Constantine, colaboró con varios guionistas (Jamie Delano, Garth Ennis y sólo dos números con Grant Morrison). En esta entrevista (2008) comenta que, a diferencia de Jamie Delano, Garth Ennis y Grant Morrison le dieron guiones completos que no le concedían mucha libertad.
"Well, they're all great writers. But working with Jamie was different to working with the other two because we created “The Horrorist” in a “Marvel-type” manner - i.e. working initially from page-by-page breakdowns of the action, from which I drew layouts, and from which Jamie wrote the final script. I've always considered this way of creating a strip gives an artist much more opportunity for producing a smooth flow to the visual narrative. Everything I've worked on with Jamie, I've done in that same way. Grant and Garth supplied full scripts. I suggested to Garth once that we work on something together in the same way I work with Jamie, but he threw up his hands in horror at the prospect! A writer sacrifices some control if he works in that Marvel-type style, and some writers don't want that."
La canción que escucha Constantine en el cassette de la ambulancia es "Do It For Fun!" del grupo escocés The Bachelor Pad (1988).
