Genre: comics?
Why infobox comics creator if Ionicus is known best for book illustrations (mainly cover art?) or magazine cartoons (single panel, i infer)?

 * P. G. Wodehouse, Sunset at Blandings (1977) --if not other novels-- contributed first edition interior illustrations as well as dustjacket |VIAFWORK16480287.
 * English-language editions, 1976–79, of three picture books written by Irmelin Sandman Lilius, 1969–71, are his three most widely held works in WorldCat libraries --as catalogued by the libraries, which routinely credit interior but not cover illustrators.

Identity
VIAF has not yet unified the ID numbers for Ionicus 40651936 33210851 282025279 261289606.

He may be represented in some arts (or British military) database as Joshua Charles Armitage or J.C. Armitage. --i suppose, as the new source [ ref name=independent ] says that in 1944 "he wanted a nom de plume to distinguish his light-hearted work from his more serious oil painting". --but VIAF does not separately hit Armitage, Joshua Charles or J.C. (i tried multiple versions).
