José González original comic art

Although mainly an illustrator, José (Pepe) González also had an important career as a comic artist. He was introduced into the comics business by Josep Toutain, the manager of Selecciones Ilustradas, in 1956. Toutain asked him to join this agency after seeing two portraits by González which were decorating the showcase of a tailor's shop. The first assignment he got was to draw a western.
