Career
A #1 New York Times bestselling writer,[2] Lee has written for various UK and US comic publishers including 2000 AD, IDW Publishing, DC Comics, Marvel Comics, Del Rey and Walker Books. He has also worked on X-Men Unlimited, Doctor Who, Superboy, Star Trek, Starship Troopers,[3][4][5] Sherlock Holmes and Spider-Man.
In 2008 Lee became the writer of the ongoing Doctor Who comic for IDW Publishing for both Tenth Doctor and Eleventh Doctor, and was one of the writers of the 2012 Star Trek: The Next Generation / Doctor Who crossover series.
Lee has also written audio dramas for Big Finish's Doctor Who, Confessions of Dorian Gray and Bernice Summerfield ranges, and has recently written a Robin of Sherwood audio drama for Spiteful Puppet / ITV. His novel Dodge & Twist was adapted by Lee into a full cast audio drama for Audible/Amazon in 2019.
In 2014, Lee began writing novels aimed at reluctant teen readers.
In September 2011, it was announced that his graphic novel Hope Falls was optioned to a development deal by Future Films for an undisclosed fee. Lee had agreed to write the first draft, thus moving into screenplay writing. In October 2016 it was announced that the project had moved to BoxFly Pictures as part of an ongoing slate of projects. In addition to this he has also written for BBC One's medical drama Doctors.
Tony is also a touring storyteller and writing lecturer, and has performed at libraries, events and schools around the world, including the 2009 and 2011 Edinburgh International Book Festivals, The Bath Literary Festival, the Newcastle Children's Book Festival, a 2009 tour of India for the British Council, the 2014 ComicPalooza Texas International Comic Con, and around a Wadi Rum bedouin campfire in Jordan in 2003.

gollark: There was the "AACS encryption key controversy" where people encoded it as flags and music and stuff.
gollark: So possibly not actually "hacking".
gollark: I bet they used the same password for everything and it got leaked somewhere.
gollark: How do you hack a *phone number*? Do you mean their phone network provider or something?
gollark: You are unlikely to encounter any illegal numbers by accident if they're bigger than 64 bits or so, apparently.
