Willy Black
About Willy Black
What began as a logo and name for a T-shirt brand in 2010 has transformed into the central figure of a comic strip. Willy Black, initially sketched as a pair of eyes and a twisted smile, has leaped from sketchbook to sketchbook over the years, undergoing subtle aesthetic changes along the way.
