Kitson provided illustrations for "Osgood Peabody's Big Green Dream Machine", a Superman text story written by Grant Morrison which appeared in the 1986 British Superman Annual.[3] His first American work for DC Comics was a Batgirl Special published in 1988.[4][5] He and writers Keith Giffen and Alan Grant launched the L.E.G.I.O.N. series in February 1989.[6] The Azrael series was crafted by Kitson and writer Dennis O'Neil beginning in February 1995.[7] While drawing Azrael, Kitson drew part of the "Contagion" storyline which crossed-over through the various Batman-related titles.[8] Kitson was one of the many artists who contributed to the Superman: The Wedding Album one-shot in 1996 wherein the title character married Lois Lane.[9] With writers Mark Waid and Brian Augustyn, Kitson produced the JLA: Year One limited series which clarified elements of the team's origin.[10] In 2000, Kitson drew a series titled Empire which was written by Waid, whose protagonist was a Doctor Doom-like supervillain named Golgoth who had defeated all superheroes and conquered the world. The series was originally published by Gorilla Comics, a company formed by Waid, Kurt Busiek and several others, but the company folded after only two issues were published.[11]Empire was completed under the DC Comics label in 2003 and 2004.[4] In 2002 he began a run on The Titans[12] and in 2004, he and Waid relaunched Legion of Super-Heroes.[13][14] for DC Comics and continued on it for two and a half years ending with issue No. 31.[4]
