==Biography==
Bell grew up in Dundee, Scotland, where he was educated at Clepington Primary School and Morgan Academy, and studied art at Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art and Design. He and author Brian Callison ran CB Studios, an art and furniture business, for a time.
From the late 1950s he worked as a cartoonist, mainly for D. C. Thomson & Co. Ltd, publishers of ''The Beano'' and ''The Dandy'' among others.〔Alan Clark, ''Dictionary of British Comic Artists, Writers and Editors'', The British Library, 1998, pp. 14-15〕 He contributed to most of the company's comics.〔Jeremy Briggs, (Debriefing a Cold War Spy: Garry Fraser interview part 1 ), Down the Tubes, 23 September 2010〕 His longest running strip was "Pup Parade", a spin-off of "The Bash Street Kids" featuring the kids' dogs, which he drew regularly in ''The Beano'' from 1967 to 1988,〔("Pup Parade" ) at beano.com〕 in ''The Topper'' from 1989 to 1990, and ''The Beezer'' from 1990 to 1992.〔George Shiers, (D.C Thomson Origins: Pup Parade ), Wacky Comics, 30 April 2012〕 According to D. C. Thomson editor Iain McLaughlin, he was "professional, quick, and ready to try anything."〔John Freeman, (In Memoriam: Gordon Bell ), Down the Tubes, 21 February 2014〕 He did some work for IPC's comics, drawing "The Wolf Pack" in ''Whoopee!'' in 1974,〔("The Wolf Pack" ) at Fleetway Street〕 and for the motoring magazine ''Autocar'', and created the "9 Wellies", cartoon characters designed to cheer up children in hospital for NHS Tayside. His satirical cartoons headed the political diary every Saturday in ''The Courier'', signed "Fax".〔
