R. D. Low

Robert Duncan Low (25 August 1895, Dundee – 13 December 1980) was a Scottish comics writer and editor. Employed by D. C. Thomson & Co., he was responsible for their line of comics, and, as a writer, co-created ''Oor Wullie'' and ''The Broons'' with artist Dudley D. Watkins.
The son of Robert Brown Low, a jute mill mechanic, and Maggie Wilson Low, he joined DC Thomson as a journalist and rose to become managing editor in charge of the children's publications department. Having launched the "big five" story papers ''Adventure'' (1921), ''The Rover'' (1922), ''The Wizard'' (1923), ''The Skipper'' (1930) and ''The Hotspur'' (1933), he developed a comic supplement for the weekly newspaper ''The Sunday Post'', the "Fun Section" (1936). It included two comic strips in Scots vernacular he had co-created with Dudley D. Watkins, a staff illustrator on the story papers: ''The Broons'', about a working-class Scottish family, and ''Oor Wullie'', about a mischievous young boy (based on Low's son Ron), alongside ''Auchentogle'', drawn by Chic Gordon, and strips by Allan Morley including ''Nero and Zero'' and ''Nosey Parker''.〔Gavin Brightwell, , That's Braw〕〔Gavin Brightwell, , That's Braw〕〔(Helensburgh Heroes: Ronald Waterson Low )〕
In 1937, as managing editor, he oversaw the launch of DC Thomson's first comic, ''The Dandy'', edited by Albert Barnes, followed by ''The Beano'', edited by George Moonie, in 1938. ''The Magic Comic'', for slightly younger readers, followed in 1939 but folded in 1941 due to paper shortages. The next comic launched was ''The Topper'' in 1953.〔 Also in 1953, Low co-created "Roger the Dodger", with artist Ken Reid, for ''The Beano''.〔Peter Hansen, 〕
