Steve Roberts

Steve Roberts is a British comics artist, best known for his work on the long-running humour strip Bec & Kawl (written by Simon Spurrier).

His iconic style, unusual in a comic known mainly for a combination of realistic techniques and action-packed stories, makes him well-suited for funny strips, and he has collaborated with Dan Abnett on a number of Sinister Dexter comedy one-offs.

Biography Roberts was originally encouraged in his comics career by Simon Davis, who has continued to act as a mentor. Despite the two artists' styles being very different, they have collaborated on a number of cover images and star scans, with Davis painting over Roberts' inking work.

Roberts has also worked closely with UK animation company SlinkyPics. With Ragdoll he created the animated series Dipdap for CBeebies. He also collaborated with Spurrier on a web-comic for BBC Cult.
