Ronald George Smith was born in 1924, in Bournemouth and died on January 10, 2019.
He was a British comic artist.
His working career spanned for nearly fifty years.
Mainly he provided strips for the two main publishers, DC Thomson and IPC Magazines.
He was popular for drawing Judge Dredd for 2000 AD and the Daily Star.
His other trademark feature was that Smith often drew a prominent
picture of Dredd (normally just head and shoulders) at the start of the
week's story, quite separate from the narrative itself; although not a
technique exclusive to Smith, it was fairly
uncommon in 2000AD at the time.
Ron Smith passed away at 94 years old.
