Perhaps a bit of explanation is in order. The issue has come up a few times on the Comics Project but needs explaining here too.
There was/is a lot of confusion over the various Matt Smiths. Most of the infomration here has been dumped into Matt Smith (comics) and links point inwards but that isn't him. Matthew Smith the artist is a little mysterious when you try to track him down through online means and this is our best stab at defining an entry for him. It may be some of the listed publications aren't wuite right (although I have checked through them as best I can) and the naoming may not be 100% but given the ongoing problems I felt it was best to outline an entry for him so we can at least create separate areas for the information rather than add it all to the wrong area. If it needs moving or anything else then we can address that. In fact given how common the name is it might be that there are 2 artists called Matthew Smith (perhaps a Matt Smith and a Matthew Dow Smith?). I have compared styles and work where I can and it seems to be one person but it might even be that this entry will need splitting. All bets are off - the important thing is to make a start and see what other informaiton we can find. (Emperor 15:15, 27 May 2007 (UTC))[reply]

Amusingly this Matt Smith (the comic artist) is drawing some of the current Doctor Who comics from IDW which star the Eleventh Doctor played by Matt Smith (the british actor)82.25.234.200 (talk) 15:32, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
