Will Roberts will be the guest blogger and writer for King Features the week of February 2 -6 on ComicsKingdom.com, King Features’ free destination website for comics fans. Will is the host of “Will Roberts’ Weekly Telegram,” a syndicated humor radio show that is distributed to 39 stations in the United States and abroad. He is an internationally renowned performer and speaker known for his high-energy and insightful content spiked with humor. Will also does a daily humor cartoon called “Witt Of Will” that fans can enjoy on WillSays.com.
Given his penchant for humorous commentary on political and social events, it is not surprising that just prior to Christmas, Will partnered with King Features to create a new segment for his radio show that he has dubbed “ComicsKingdom.com.” Once a week, he has been interviewing a King Features talent, starting with the syndicate’s editor and moving on to a number of its cartoonists, including Hilary Price (“Rhymes With Orange,”), Dan Piraro (“Bizarro”), Bill Bettwy (“Take It From the Tinkersons”), Jonathan Mahood (“Bleeker the Rechargeable Dog”), David Reddick (“Intelligent Life”), Rina Piccolo (“Tina’s Groove”), John Rose (“Barney Google & Snuffy Smith”), and Bob Weber Jr. (“Slylock Fox and Comics for Kids”), with all of the “Six Chix” cartoonists (Isabella Bannerman, Margaret Shulock, Rina Piccolo, Anne Gibbons, Benita Epstein and Stephanie Piro) next in the lineup.
When he is not hosting his radio show, Will wears another, Western-style hat. As a cowboy and trick roper, he appeared for more than three years as the featured artist in the Cirque du Soleil show in Las Vegas. Fans can learn more about Will Roberts at his website at WillSays.com and on SoundCloud at https://soundcloud.com/willrobertsweeklyradio, where he has posted the interviews he has done with the King Features cartoonists. The interviews may also be seen on the cartoonists’ own websites. See the list with links below:
