“Peter is one of those very rare creatures — a wonderful illustrator and designer, a creator of striking single images — who also understand that comics are a whole different ball game and does both beautifully. It’s been a joy and an honor to work with him.”
/Mike Mignola

In 2006 he released his first comic book for Image Comics, followed by a run on Strange Girl with Rick Remender. After several graphic novels for IDW, working with Richard Morgan, Alex Irvine, and Joe R. Lansdale, Peter landed his first job for Dark Horse Comics, providing artwork for the Hellboy Roleplaying Game.

Since 2013, Peter has been working with Mike Mignola and Christopher Golden on various titles in the Mignolaverse, such as Baltimore, Joe Golem: Occult Detective, and Frankenstein – to date, more than 44 comic books and eight graphic novels. Peter is the author and/or artist of more than 50 books, including 20 graphic novels. In addition, Peter has provided hundreds of comics, children's, and fantasy books with covers and interior artwork for authors such as Clive Barker, Philip Pullman, J. R. R. Tolkien, Michelle Paver, and Frank Frazetta. For Swedish publisher Semic, Peter has written and illustrated a total of eleven fantasy novels and artbooks.

Sagt om Vikingar: "… otroligt snygg rakt igenom, varenda illustration är ett eget konstverk. Förutom detta är den textmässigt mycket välgjord med en intressant blandning av fakta från vikingar på istiden till dagens levande arv."
