Basically though, Warren is an Englishman who has made his mark on comics by writing books such as STORMWATCH, THE AUTHORITY, WOLVERINE, TRANSMETROPOLITAN and many others (these are just the books I've read). He has also been recently sought out by Marvel to revamp the majority of their X-Men books.
