TREASURY OF BRITISH COMICS TOM PATERSON COLLECTION HC - Hardcover

Über die Autorinnen und Autoren

After a promising start to life, Keith Richardson found himself chained to Tharg’s Cosmic hamster wheel sometime in the early noughties. There he remains, collating zarjaz! 2000 AD & Treasury of British Comics collections and commissioning the odd special here and there.

Scottish artist Tom Paterson was spotted at an early age by The Dandy editor Albert Barnes, who wanted to hire him for a strip called The Dangerous Dumplings which was to run in a new comic title. When the project was scrapped Paterson came to the attention of IPC, who he started to work for not long after leaving school. Inspired by George Martin, Leo Baxendale (with whom his work is most often compared) and Ken Reid, Paterson's kinetic style brought new life to Buster, Sweeny Toddler and Grimly Feendish as well as brand new creations that featured in a host of IPC titles including Oink!, Whizzer and Chips and School Fun. He moved over to DC Thomson in the 80s, taking on their lead characters Dennis the Menace, Minnie the Minx and Banana Man. Today, Tom regularly contributes to Viz comic and has been a regular on the Cor!! Buster specials.
