 Ronnie Werner was born in Wisconsin on December 18th of 1965. He really isn't into talking about himself, but since you asked; Ronnie learned how to draw from comic book masters Jack Kirby, George Tuska and Steve Ditko though he never actually got to meet them. He learned about pretty naked girls from the Playboy magazines his dad hid under the dresser. In the summer of 1977 he moved from Wisconsin to Oregon. That summer he saw Star Wars, in the theater, twelve times. A very brief stint at the Art Institute of Chicago and another at the Pacific Northwest College of Art, threatened to make him a legitimate artist, but in the end he stayed true to his first loves, pretty naked girls and comic books. Ronnie thinks it's important to know these things about him: Batman is cooler than Superman but he'd still rather be Superman. Peanut Butter Captain Crunch is the best cereal ever. Calvin and Hobbes is higher art than anything he has ever seen. Ronnie Currently draws The Paranormals web comic for Bonus.com He is divorced and lives in Portland, Oregon with his teenage daughter and retarded dog.
