Career
McDaid made his debut in Doctor Who Magazine, after sending a sample strip to then editor Clayton Hickman. His debut work for DWM was as writer of The First, a story where the Doctor meets Ernest Shackleton. He took part in Comic Book Resources' Comic Book Idol 2007, reaching the final three.[1]
He then teamed up with Glen Brunswick for a twelve-issue run on Jersey Gods for Image Comics.
While the television series Doctor Who was off-air, McDaid wrote the 10th Doctor's continuing adventures, published in DWM, then collected in The Crimson Hand. In these stories, the Doctor finds himself with a new companion, Majenta Pryce, whom McDaid had created for the story Hotel Historia.[2] Since then he has worked for Panini Comics, IDW, Oni Press, DC Comics, Dark Horse, Boom! Studios and Blank Slate.
At the 2012 New York Comic Con it was announced that McDaid would be one of the artists on Dark Horse Comics' Catalyst Comix, with writer Joe Casey, released in 2013.[3][4]
McDaid was the comic book artist on the multi-media project, Vandroid, along with Tommy Lee Edwards. The project includes a 5 issue comic, an album and film.[5] In 2014 he illustrated a story written by Irvine Welsh which was published in IDP:2043, as part of the Edinburgh Book Festival.[6] He worked with Welsh again in 2018, contributing pages of art to his novel Dead Men's Trousers.
Personal life
McDaid is originally from Cornwall, but has lived in the north-east of Scotland since 2003.[7] [8]
