This was the artist who, and this dates back to prior to (TV) Tops, provided the strips for most of the Fleetway Grange Hill annuals from 1981 onwards (John Cooper did the first one, published by Grandreams in 1980). As far as Tops went he also later drew a strip Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32738097.post-53861160813328507002007-10-18T00:41:00.000+01:002007-10-18T00:41:00.000+01:00Hi Andreas,It looks like Brian Delaney was definit...Hi Andreas,<BR/><BR/>It looks like Brian Delaney was definitely the artist on The Professionals. He was a regular with D. C. Thomson, contributing to many of their girls' comics and some of the boys' comics, too. I know he did a lot of work for <I>Buddy</I> (Tom Smith's Schooldays, the Personality series) in 1981-83 but, beyond that, I know nothing about him.Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12010426017572710283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32738097.post-27889240994940898702007-10-15T22:11:00.000+01:002007-10-15T22:11:00.000+01:00Any idea who the artist was on the Tops Profession...Any idea who the artist was on the Tops Professional strip? To me, it looks a lot like Brian Delaney, a British artist whom I've been looking for information about. The only strip I know that Delaney drew was the Scandinavian comic book version of Alfred Andriola's "Kerry Drake". He was he main artist 1984-ca 1990, but I've found NO info on him whatsoever.Andreashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04253091214870531010noreply@blogger.com
