Apologies if this has been discussed before but does anyone have a list of the artists who drew/painted the covers of the Beano Book from the first to the most recent? Here's my guess for some of them:
1958 to 1962 – Leo Baxandale
1963 to 1994 – David Sutherland
Is that right?
Beano Book Cover Artists
Re: Beano Book Cover Artists
Dave continued up to 1996, and also did 1998.
1997, 2000-2007 - David Parkins
1998 - Dave Sutherland
1999 - Dennis and Gnasher I think by Barrie Appleby, but open to persuasion. Others were stock art.
2008-2009 - Barrie Appleby
2010-2012 - Jimmy Hansen
2013 - Steve Bright

Re: Beano Book Cover Artists
Dudley D Watkins of course drew some 60's Beano covers as well.
also Jonah one is by Ken Reid..

Re: Beano Book Cover Artists
I'm guessing Watkins did the 1966 Beano Book, with Biffo holding up a drum. Did he do any others? Did Ken Reid do any apart from the 1962 Jonah cover?

...He drew the front and back covers but he didn't actually paint them. I think that probably applied to some of the other cover artists as well.Peter Gray wrote:also Jonah one is by Ken Reid..

Did Reg Carter (Eggo's artist) do any of the 1940s ones?
