John Richardson; UK
John Richardson is a British comics artist and writer who has worked for various publishers on titles such as 2000AD, as well as the Eagle (on D.A.D.D), Scream (on The Nightcomers), Pussy Muldoon (DC Thomson's Celebrity Magazine) and 'Ally Sloper Vol 3 4 (on Pagan) as well as the cartoon strip Amanda for The Sun newspaper.

Amongst John's other commissions are a strip featuring Tina Tailpipe for SUPER BIKE, and Twong for a British magazine. Twong is, so John assures me, the Greek God of CB (well the Greeks were a very advanced civilisation). Apparently, Twong was born deaf, and only the advent of CB has given him the ability to hear.

By way of a complete change of style and emphasis, John also produces a Famous Five strip for an Enid Blyton fanzine. “Fortunately, I only have to draw the pictures for this — they supply the plot line. It's published in Denmark and appears in lots of different languages. It's really weird to see your speech bubbles filled with some totally unheard of language.
