The Three Gringos are the comic my pal Les Jones and
I drew all through High School. Well, we mostly drew them in
Biology class because it was so boring. Anyway, I should probably
introduce you to the characters.
Les - Named after... Les! Of course, since the real
Les drew the most of the strips, he usually gave this character
the best comical lines. Unfortunately for the trio, Les has a tendency to
get us into to trouble. Like the time we tried to steal that huge
diamond... Les' hat is bent upward in the back, because he fell asleep on it!
George - Eh, everybody calls me George, even though my
first name is Greg! Anyway, my character is always playing video games and tries
to keep the gang out of trouble. He's probably the most sensible
of the group. He has a black stripe on his hat.
Ed - He's always been the unofficial leader of the
group. He usually doesn't have a clue, but most leaders don't
anyway. He's pretty stupid, and is usually the one who gets beat
up. (Les & George let him!) His helicopter hat came from Ed's
first appearance: On the side of a paper airplane! Les drew this
little guy flying along the outside of the plane and was always
trying to be the studly-type. We later drew these silly comics
called "Ed The Traveling Man" who would travel the world
searching for hot dates. I guess he wanted to be James Bond! "Oh
Ed!" Named after the guy who sat behind us in Biology, Ed Sheffield. And
just so everyone knows, the real Ed is NOTHING like the
cartoon character.
Bruno - The Gringos' arch-enemy. For no reason at
all, he will just show up and beat up our poor heroes! He's a
pretty mean dude, but has one weakness... Just wait until episode 3!!
