Reunion – Guest Strip by Ben Wilson

Today’s guest comic is by Ben Wilson, the young Aussie creator of Greg and Gary Comics … and this one is really awesome to me.

Why?  Well, Ben is only 14 years old.

You know what I was doing when I was 14?  I was tracing real comics — mainly Jim Lee’s stuff — and Wizard Magazine covers, and acting like that meant I could draw almost as well as the artists I was copying.  What I wasn’t doing was writing and drawing my own regular strip (and let’s face it, if I WAS it would have been about a cheap Batman knockoff), developing my own style, and putting it out there for the world to see, never mind making and submitting guest strips for other artists.

I think Ben’s doing awesome, and he has a great future ahead of him if he keeps it up. So check out his comic and give the kid some encouragement. :)

    Wow, thanks for putting it up. Yeah, art is one major thing I aspire to do. I love doing this and I think doing other people’s characters is just as good for fun and experience.

    I love life of ronnie. It is a great strip that has been giving me laughs. It a great experience for me to do this. I also say to you, my man, keep up your good work and all that you do and to you, your wife and new kid, good luck in the future and beyond!
