Simon Davis (born 1968) is a British comics artist known for his fully painted art work on Sinister Dexter, Black Siddha and Stone Island. He is also a member of the Royal Birmingham Society of Artists and has produced prize-winning fine art.

Born in 1968 in Stratford-upon-Avon, Warwickshire, Davis attended Alcester Grammar School, before gaining a "Diploma in Technical illustration" from Mid-Warwickshire College, Leamington Spa in 1986. He subsequently studied illustration and graphic design at Swindon College of Art and after graduating in 1988, he worked as a graphic designer and freelance illustrator of books and magazines for the next five years before moving into comics work in 1993/1994.

Davis lives in London.

Davis has largely worked for the UK anthology 2000 AD. For that publication, he has been a major contributor to the Missionary Man strip with writer Gordon Rennie, and to Sinister Dexter with Dan Abnett. He painted the Sinister and Dexter duo's first full-length story, "Gunshark Vacation", described by then-editor David Bishop as "a big fat hit". He has also been the sole illustrator on a number of recent stories including Black Siddha and Stone Island. His work has been published around the world, most notably in the UK, US and Germany.
