He continued to work on the strip for a time after the studio was disbanded in 1959, leaving it in 1962. He later worked on Countdown/TV Action in the early 1970's and on various nursery comics in the 1980's. In the early 2000's, he returned to drawing Dan Dare for the semi-professional magazine Spaceship Away.
