Tom Paterson (born 22 April 1954; Scotland)

Scottish artist Tom Paterson was a productive contributor to the comic titles of both Fleetway from 1973 to 1990, and D.C Thomson from 1986 to 2012, initially in a style close to Leo Baxendale's.

In the period 1973-1990, Paterson did art on such Fleetway features as 'Grimley Feendish' (Shiver & Shake), 'Clever Dick and Dozy Mick' (Whoopee!), and 'Sweeny Toddler' (Shiver & Shake).

He has worked for D.C. Thomson since 1986, and drew among others 'Calamity James', 'Minnie the Minx' and 'The Numskulls' (The Beano).

He has drawn strips for Viz. He lives in Leith, with three children, and is a Hearts supporter.
