Jamie Smart is a comic penciller, colourist, letterer and writer known for specialising in an exaggerated, somewhat juvenile style. He is the creative force between the ongoing Doctor Who Adventures parody Alien Babies! and the book Where's the Doctor?
Outside of Doctor Who, he's probably most famous internationally for the mature gothic horror series, Bear, featuring a teddy bear and his feline tormenter. Much of Bear's humour derives from the fact that characters drawn in Smart's typically exaggerated, expressive, kid-friendly way are juxtaposed against adult language and often violent situations. Within Britain however, his 2008-2012 stint as the lead creative on the Desperate Dan strip in The Dandy might have been seen by more people.
