NAME GAME.... DC THOMPSON ARTISTS.

Can anyone tell me who the artists were for:
The story about the blacksmith (Chell Pudduck?) in Medieval times who made arms and armour and carried a huge hammer with him?
Was it called Hammer Man? In the Victor?

Also, who drew 'The Skyscraper Squadron' a story about WW1 aviators? I think that this is a Victor or Hotspur storyin the mid 70's. I have an annual (can't remember which) with a strip drawn by the same guy where there are pilots competing for an air mail contract post WW1 and one of the competitors sabotages peoples planes.
Cheers!

Like many of the Victor characters, the character appeared in different story titles - the Golden Chariot being one of them. I know there's more from some of the Victors I have for sale (oops, that must have been an accidental plug!). Alf Tupper and Cadman, at least, appeared in various titled stories too.
