'''Gordon Rennie''' is a Scottish [[comics]] writer, responsible for ''White Trash: Moronic Inferno'', as well as several [[comic strip]]s for ''[[2000 AD (comics)|2000 AD]]'' and novels for ''[[Warhammer Fantasy Battle|Warhammer Fantasy]]''.

In May 2008, he announced he was leaving comics to concentrate full-time on video games which "are more fun, pay better and have a brighter future".<ref name=sundaymail>[http://www.sundaymail.co.uk/lifestyle/jobs-in-scotland/2008/05/11/meet-the-big-game-hunters-78057-20413507/ "Meet The Big Game Hunters"], ''[[Sunday Mail (Scotland)|The Sunday Mail]]'', May 11, 2008 {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080516062111/http://www.sundaymail.co.uk/lifestyle/jobs-in-scotland/2008/05/11/meet-the-big-game-hunters-78057-20413507/ |date=May 16, 2008 }}</ref> However, he has since written several new series for ''2000 AD'', Titan and others.

==Biography==
{{BLP sources section|date=February 2022|talk=Uncited or dead}}
His first work was published in ''[[Blast! (comic)|Blast!]]'' magazine in 1991, a metafictional Sherlock Holmes story called "Sherlock Holmes in the Curious Case of the Vanishing Villain", painted by [[Woodrow Phoenix]]. It also had appearances by characters from other Victorian fiction including [[Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde]] and characters from stories by [[Edgar Allan Poe]].

He included a completely different ''White Trash'' in the same issue - a satirical journey through the USA, drawn by the New [[Zealand]] artist [[Martin Emond]]. Both these stories were later collected into one-shot [[graphic novels]] and published by [[Tundra Publishing]]. Two further planned collaborations with Phoenix, a one-shot graphic novel called ''Orson Welles: Special Agent!''<ref>{{cite web|title=A Barbed Fist in a Velvet Glove: An Interview with writer Gordon Rennie|first=ANTONY|last= ESMOND |date=February 15, 2015|website=DownTheTubes.net|url=https://downthetubes.net/a-barbed-fist-in-a-velvet-glove-an-interview-with-writer-gordon-rennie/|quote=...a Hollywood pulp noir short graphic novel that Woodrow Phoenix and I did back in the early 1990s, but which has remained a lost gem....}}</ref> and ''[[Necronauts]]'', later completed with [[Frazer Irving]], were halted when [[Tundra Press]] ceased publishing in 1993.

Rennie's first major series for the 2000 AD family was ''[[Missionary Man (comics)|Missionary Man]]'', which began in ''[[Judge Dredd Megazine]]'' vol.2 #29 (5/93) and ran between the latter and ''2000 AD'' for 74 episodes before finishing in 2002. Other original series include ''Witch World'' (1997) and ''Rain Dogs'' (2000). He also took over the exploits of the [[Judge Dredd]] villain [[Mean Machine Angel|Mean Machine]] (2000–2001), as well as the return of the original ''[[Rogue Trooper]]'' (2002–2004).

His works for ''2000 AD'' include the miniseries ''[[Necronauts]]'' (2000–2001), in which [[Harry Houdini]], [[Arthur Conan Doyle]], [[Charles Fort]] and [[H. P. Lovecraft]] team up to defeat an alien menace that seeks to destroy the human race. This was followed up by the series ''[[Caballistics, Inc.]]'', a story about a recently privatized team of occult researchers, which included a combination of pop-cultural references and labyrinthine conspiracies.

By 2004, Rennie had become a writer on the Judge Dredd strip, following up a number of subplots initiated by its principal author, [[John Wagner]], as well as developing his own situations and guest characters, some of whom have spun off into stories of their own. While the lengthier Judge Dredd adventures are typically scripted by Wagner, Rennie was awarded one in 2005. This story, "Blood Trails", ran for ten episodes beginning in ''2000 AD'' prog 1440 (5/25/05).

His contribution to the series of novels expanding [[miniature wargaming]]  platforms ''[[List of Warhammer Fantasy novels|Warhammer Fantasy]]'', ''[[List of Warhammer 40,000 novels|Warhammer 40,000]]'' and ''[[Battlefleet Gothic]]'' include ''Zavant'', ''Ulli and Marquand'', the Kal Jerico stories, ''Bloodquest'', ''Execution Hour'' and ''Shadow Point''.

Rennie has worked on computer games and was nominated for the 2006 [[British Academy of Film and Television Arts|BAFTA]] for his script on the [[Rogue Trooper (games)#Third person adventure|Rogue Trooper game]] as well as a nomination for the 2012 [[Writers' Guild of Great Britain]]'s Best Videogame Script award along with co-scriptwriters [[Alan Barnes (writer)|Alan Barnes]] and Emma Beeby.<ref name="bigfinish.com">{{cite web |url=http://www.bigfinish.com/news/v/doctor-who-authors-nominated-for-writer-s-guild-award |title=Doctor Who Authors Nominated for Writers' Guild Award |publisher=Big Finish |date =November 12, 2012}}</ref>

In May 2008, he was quoted as saying ,"I got fed up with comics and quit last month to concentrate on games." Although he later said he was misquoted, and that he has not completely given up comics, as he would still be writing an ongoing series for ''2000 AD''.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.2000adonline.com/?zone=fan&page=message&choice=22508.2812000000 |title=Rennie's comments on 2000 AD's message board |access-date=2008-05-17 |archive-date=2011-06-06 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110606073318/http://www.2000adonline.com/?zone=fan&page=message&choice=22508.2812000000}}</ref> At that time, Rennie was also planning a novel on the Romans in Scotland.<ref name=sundaymail /> He has since returned to ''2000 AD'' to write the serials ''Aquila'', ''[[Jaegir]]'' and ''Survival Geeks''.

He also co-wrote ''[[The Doomsday Quatrain]]'' and sections of ''[[1001 Nights (audio drama)|1001 Nights]]'' with Emma Beeby for [[Big Finish Productions]]' ''[[Doctor Who]]'' main range of audio plays.

He is known for maintaining close links with the [[fan (aficionado)|fan]] community, for example by contributing to [[British small press comics|small press]] comics such as ''[[Solar Wind (comic)|Solar Wind]]'', despite a public persona he describes as "a grumpy Scottish [[wikt:git|git]]".
