Neil Gaiman s Teknophage was written by Rick Veitch and drawn by Bryan Talbot for 1 6. Paul Jenkins writer Paul Jenkins took over from 7 with artist Al Davison until the series cancellation. The character then appeared in a six issue limited series written by Bryan Talbot and penciled by Steve Pugh . Fictional character biography Henry Phage, sometimes called the Teknophage or Mr. Phage by those that worked for him is the ruler of many worlds, including his home world, Kalighoul. He has survived for 65 million years, feeding himself and practically making himself like a god. However, he is not immune to objects that are Off World matter, as we have seen in the Teknophage and Phage Shadow Death comics. He has created his own technology through use of alchemy and has made his world similar to a Victorian era steampunk world. He lives in a gigantic moving building, the Phage building.
