Colin B. Liddell (born 1970; Kilwinning,Scotland) is the executive editor of Tokyo Journal, Japan's oldest English language magazine. He lives in Tokyo and writes for a wide selection of other publications.

After working at the London-based rock magazine Riff Raff, he moved to Japan, where he started writing and doing editing work on Tokyo Journal in 1999. The next year, he started to contribute articles mainly on art, but sometimes on music, to the Japan Times, the Mainichi Daily News, and the Asahi Evening News (now the Asahi Shimbun International Herald Tribune). Since then, his well-researched but heavily opinionated articles have appeared in NY Arts, South China Morning Post, Kansai Time Out, and Metropolis, among others.

He was appointed executive editor of Tokyo Journal in June 2006.
