'''Philip "Phil" Foglio''' is an American cartoonist and comic book artist best known for his humorous science fiction and fantasy art. His most famous works include ''[[Girl Genius]]'' (co-written with his wife Kaja), ''XXXenophile'' and ''[[Buck Godot: Zap Gun for Hire]]''.
 
He is also the writer and artist of the classic gaming comic ''[[What's New with Phil and Dixie]]'', published for many years in [[Dragon (magazine)|''Dragon'' magazine]].
Line 22:
* [[Author Avatar]]: A fellow in a white turtleneck sweater and black bowler hat who makes cameo appearances in various works, is Phil the presenter of ''What's New?'', and is a minor but significant character in ''[[Girl Genius]]''. He also appears in one ''Munden's Bar'' story as a fill-in bartender while the regular one is on holiday.
* [[Awesome McCoolname]]: All his illustrations for the ''[[Magic: The Gathering]]'' set ''Unglued'' are credited to Claymore J. Flapdoodle.
* [[Bleached Underpants]]: ''XXXenophile'', as the name suggests, consists of sci-fi and fantasy themed porn (albeit with a generous helping of plot), which may be a surprise to people who discovered [[Girl Genius]] first. Though Phil will still cheerfully refer to himself as a "Gentleman Pornographer", the series is on hiatus [[So My Kids Can Watch|while he and Kaja are raising kids]]{{when}}.
* [[Extreme Omnivore]]: His adaptation of ''[[Myth Adventures]]'' gives Aahz a penchant for literally chewing on the scenery.
* [[Getting Crap Past the Radar]]: Some of the Avernum pictures in particular demand a closer look.
